I know I've been MIA since the end of last year. Things went a bit off the rails with the pinched nerve in my neck. After several failed alternate treatments, I had surgery. 2 level ACDF from C5-C7. Thankfully it was like someone shut off a light switch for all the nerve pain I was experiencing and can actually brush my teeth with my right hand again! I am now 4 months post-op, and the imaging is showing that the bones are fusing well enough that my surgeon has lifted all restrictions. "Use your common sense for how fast you ramp up, but you are free to return to running." This was the best sentence I have heard in months. Especially since I have not been able to run since the end of 2025. I can only access this through my laptop so I might only be on once a week.

Went for a nice sunset run with the boy, needed to get out and the wind and temp had dropped off. 1 mile for him and 3 for me

After two weeks of long days at work I got home and got a run in. It was pretty nice with this cooler weather to get a few miles in. Hope for more this weekend before taking my kid on his school campout

Sorry it been a while, how are you all?

Have a lovely day ladies 🩷
