2 mo post op

Today I'm 60 days out and I feel great. I'm so glad I had this surgery. I know I will be better off in the long run. 

Yesterday I started to add resistance to the bike/elliptical. I started doing squats (not past 90*) lunges, side steps with a band, & just in general making my normal exercises a little harder. 

I was at the gym 2 days ago and I got up to 7 mph on the elliptical. I don't think I went that fast before I had surgery. 

I made a goal for myself to run a 5K either in the end of Sept or Oct.y surgeon said we could talk running at 4 mo. I've been doing amazing throughout this recovery so I know I can do it. I may be a little ambitious saying this, but I want to do a 5K around the 30 min mark. Ok honestly I'll be upset if it takes me longer than 30 min. I understand it will probably be around the 30-35 min mark but I'm going to be positive. 

I'm so excited to be getting back to my old ways.
