I've considered myself a runner for a long time - not a fast one or even a good one. But, I enjoy running and the benefits of training. I took a few years off after having back surgery in 2007 and thought my running days were over. One day about four years ago I decided that I should try to run again. I did and I kept running and kept feeling better and better. My knees, my back, everything felt great - my blood pressure lowered back into the normal range, blood glucose was great.
I've been running on the country roads near home for the past four years. I haven't really had a goal in mind, other than to improve my fitness. I have run a couple 5k races, but other than that just running 3-5 times a week over varying distances. I would love to run some races and just need to make up my mind to pick some.
