I was prepping for a half marathon at the beginning of April; 2 days prior to the race I went to work and within a few hours developed excruciating back pain. Almost a week later (and 3 doctors later) I was diagnosed with 2 bulging discs, a very close precursor to herniated discs. With physical therapy and following doctor's orders my back is much better now.
I haven't run since then. I want to change that.
I truly miss jogging and the time I have to clear my head. I also have gained a little weight and want to shed those pounds.
