Better, but still slow

I tried to run this morning and was basically, but not completely, successful. The place where we are staying had a 5K run, which I joined. I thought that it would be a marked path and everyone could go at his or her own pace (I didn't care that I wouldn't "win"). It turned out, though, that it was a "stay together as a group" kind of thing, and I just couldn't keep up, so I went back after a while rather than continue to hold the group back.

I felt a lot better in terms of pain, though, so I counted that as a victory. I could basically run without the area from my surgery hurting, which was great. Also, after I gave up on finishing the run (which was outdoors, at approximately 2000 feet, with several uphill stretches...no wonder I was having trouble!), I went to the recreation center for the resort and walked and ran on a treadmill instead. So I still got plenty of exercise!
