Takin' it Easy

My pain was a little worse this afternoon when I woke up so I decided not to push it too hard.  But I did do a short 15 minute ride on the bike.  Tomorrow if the pain is better I want to shoot for a 1 hour ride.  It is a delicate balance between keeping in shape, helping myself heal, and doing further damage.  The only thing I have to gage it by is the pain.

But I really want to run those marathons, it is my way of helping end cancer.  I don't mind a little pain.  Maybe this battle of mine is a gentle reminder of what cancer patients have to deal with.  Pain and disability are terrible things, and I am getting a small glance at what it must be like.
