New school year is in full swing. Completed my first 5k back and broke 40 mins! (See Race Report) More training. Still getting stronger every day. Just putting in the time...
My journey from a marathon runner and triathlete, through two ankle reconstruction surgeries due to PTTD, all while earning a PhD in Exercise Physiology, and starting a career as a college professor...
Ever seen a flatter foot? This was the beginning of my PTTD surgery journey...

Race Report- 1st 5k!
My university had a 5k to welcome back the students to the new school year in a healthy and active way. I took this run seriously and BROKE 40 MINS FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE MY SURGERIES!!!! 38:20!!! How awesome is that?!?!? Doctors told me I would never run again and now I'm averaging 12:20 miles (4.9 mph) on a hilly course!
I was only limping a little after the race, but no lingering pain.
