Signed up for my first 5K Run

Believe me Brad, I'm watching how my ankle responds to the running. So far it's been good, mostly due to the weight loss taking stress off the ankle. Luckily I've only had to have a few surgeries on it to remove bone chips. No pins, etc yet and hope to never have to. Having invested in good shoes will also help limit any further injury. My old set was middle of the road and show it as I got about 300 miles out of them.

Right now though after many years of being a couch potato, I'm relishing in the fact that I can run as far as I've been able to.
