I went running today for the first time since before my surgery. Things were going great for the first mile and a quarter. My toe didn't really hurt, and I was feeling pretty good.
Then I got a leg cramp. I've never had one before from running. I talked to my sister, and she thinks it's because "the surgery changed the biomechanics of [my] running". That sounds feasible. I was trying to run normally on the bad foot, but I'm sure I wasn't.
But it was a good start. I ended up, according to Map My Run, running about 1.4 miles then walking 1.6. Next time I expect to do better. I don't have much time to get ready for my 10K.
I'm glad you got a cramp!

Yeah, it's a cool site. A
Yeah, it's a cool site. A little clunky and slow sometimes, but I like it for figuring out how far I ran. It also has some other features that I haven't really explored. It makes me want something like the Nike+ to track GPS waypoints to upload, though.
