Joggin' around the Christmas tree!

Well what a putz I am! My apologies for being absent, no excuse except I'm a putz! This is a busy season for us! I had another close friend pass away, had to officiate his funeral. Got a wedding this weekend down in Arkansas! It's going to be at a cool place called the Thorncrown Chapel.
On the running front; I've been testing the ankle by jogging to the mail box, from parking lot to store, even around the house...up the stairs, etc. It's feeling fine! I have even noticed my desire to run is creeping back! Yes!! Must not get fat...must not get fat...like to be skinny...the benefits of running are many! Must keep fitness level...don't lose it...no, must not lose it....
Hope to post a run report soon..have a great Christmastime! Peace!

You are in one of your busy times of the year with Advent and Christmas. Good reasons to be absent from blogging. It sounds like your ankle is doing better! I hope you can get out on a run sometime soon.

Glad you're back and doing well! I adore that chapel, it is incredible! I hope you can take a couple of pictures of it while you're there! Have a nice weekend and keep up the nice rest but like you said, don't lose the fitness...it's so hard to get back!

      This is the most wonderful time of year! I love the heat and humidity! Yet I still get out earlier due to my advanced age! 4.4 miles! ...
