After a strict diet of clear fluids I was actually looking forward to just getting to the hospital and getting into surgery. I had to be there at midday but didn't get to theatre until 5:45pm so it was a really long day. The good news I got the all clear and a resting heart rate to be proud off.

Another rest day, but had volunteered to assist at the Striders 10k race with registrations and time keeping. Razor was awesome and Blue Dog is definitely in great form.

Today was my first post-surgery run. I still didn’t feel 100% but as usual I was getting itchy feet. I had arranged to meet Katie at the Striders STAR with a plan to run then walk the shorter STAR option. We ran for just over 7km and then walked approx. 8km, it was really nice but unfortunately we missed the spectacular scenery of the “10 Brigades STAR”.
It had been a while since I had been to STAR and today reminded me just how good they are, there are some definite plans to get back into the routine of running them regularly. Lots of good wishes were received today for our pending trip to the
Today is my first day of Annual Leave, but I was out the door at 6.30 am from my run. As I was getting dressed for my run I still felt a little light headed so I thought I would just take it easy. During my run I felt like I was just going up and down in the one spot, however I did manage an average pace of 5:30/km for 11km (a little too quick than the suggested program). I now feeling really flat, and Blue Dog has pleasantly reminded me that I should still be taking it easy.
Today I am off to the RPA with my mother who will undergo some tests, prior to her liver surgery this week. It will be a pretty anxious couple of days.
