I started this illustrated running project 14 months ago, right before surgery, with the aim of running a marathon. Last weekend, I did just that.

Countdown: One week to assisted walking

I have, hopefully, entered the last week of non-weight bearing recovery. After last time, I don't want to get my hopes up, but I can't help it. Getting around on one leg for 6 weeks is really hard. So far I've taken three big falls, including one down the stairs, and I'm a little nervous I dented my growing cartilage. Oh well, fingers crossed...
