When I got home today I decided to go for a little run. I've been holding the same pace the last few "rehab" test runs I've done and today extended the distance slightly to 1.4 miles from 1. Again I ran pain free so I canceled my Dr. appointment tomorrow after work and will ease myself back into running carefully and slowly. I think perhaps the most critical part is not the fact that I'm running in new shoes but that I'm stretching daily for about 20 minutes.

There is hope yet.
