Good Morning Everyone! I am up and moving. The surgery went very well. I decided to do a spinal block at the last minute. I never felt a thing and I slept through the whole proceedure. They woke me up when it was over. The numbness lasted a lot longer on me than they though it would. 9 hours! That caused me some problems…

Sandy, Here is one that I live by that is very similar: Budda says: "Seek peace from within, do not seek it from without." Tell Hubby that I wish him a full and speedy recovery! Hang tough girl! Jeffrey

Good Evening! Just got back from my run. I got a tough 3.5 miles in tonight right after a long strength and ab workout. I think I paid the price on the run from yesterdays plyometric workout.

Hi There! Congrats on the accomplishments to date! Way to go!!! You are thinking correctly in my humble opinion. I too have struggled with knee issues. I have an eliptical and like to use it when I cannot run outside. The caveat to this is as follows: I can now run with only minor knee issues since the weight has come off.…
