going in the right direction

Vacation is over and it is time to get back on the training path. My first race is scheduled for April 17 and I have a lot of work to do to get ready. Basically I wasted all of 2006 and have to start from scratch. I am back up to a very slow three mile run and speed will come later. Five miles is the target for next month. Unfortunately I will be close to blind for a couple of weeks after my PK Lasik operation. My vision is so bad (in unison: How bad is it) that I cannot do the easy lasik where you drive away in a couple of hours. The doctor says I am two points away from a disability check.
The Hawaii vacation was a hoot. I spent christmas day at a real luau. The weather was a perfect 78 degrees and the food was delightful.

The lava fields the day before were interesting but it was very hot and the 11 mile hike was no fun at all.
