Today I ran a 5km race. I had my sleeve on Aug 1. If you told me earlier this year that I would be running again, I would say you were nuts. It felt great running this race and it will not be the last.

Bravo!

Way to go!

I ran my first 5k race today too!! The jingle bell running Fresno, CA. Had a blast!

That's so awesome!! What an inspiration!!

That's awesome. It was a lot of fun 2700 people did it. It was Fresno's first annual so I'm am glad I was there for it. I will be doing it annually also

That is truly amazing!!! Congrats on your success!!!

Congrats !!!

Congratulations!

Thanks everyone official time was 32:27. I finished 928th out of 1729.

Way to go. I did it in 33 min 15 sec. I'll get u next year.

Truly amazing! Keeping running, that is my goal. When a song comes on, I imagine myself running but my feet are going anywhere. Maybe after surgery, no maybe, after surgery I will get there.

I sure you will just like me, I'm sure you're just to be out there and not be last

That's right... There's no maybe to it. Besides the obvious of wanting to lose weight, I wanted the sleeve so it would be possible to run again. I'm rooting for you. Good luck
