The Virtual Run

I'm in Jemison...no not really, but sorta. I decided to setup a "virtual run" through the state toward the beach. The goal will be the USS Alabama in Mobile, Alabama, which is 271 miles.

Here's the deal:
At the end of each month, I'll add the monthly totals from my running, swimming, hiking and biking to the map to see where I am. Distance wise, a mile will be a mile, no matter how it's earned. Now, you can follow along on the journey.

So far this month, I have covered 3.5mi swimming and 50.5mi biking, for approximately 54mi. Only 217mi more to go :)

***UPDATE***
I decided to actually start with my miles logged from Jan 1. I figured it wouldn't be fair for me to leave out those miles in my journey, so that will add another 130mi to my trip. Those miles have put me just south of Evergreen, Al. That leaves me with almost 90 miles left. Once I reach Mobile, the goal will be to head East across Florida keep moving. We'll see how far I get. A new map has been added below!

Hope you enjoy!

Boot update

Ok, so I'm out of the boot. I went in last Wednesday and the xrays showed that the healing was coming real good and that I could remove my boot. That's a relief! Unfortunately, I still can't run because we don't want to go through the problems again.

Instead, I get 8 sessions of physical therapy to fix some of the problems, and then we get to start back on a running regimen. Slowly but surely...

Now, we just have to hope the MRI was clear. That will be ready tomorrow. I'm really starting to dislike the doctor's appointments!
