When can I Run ??

[blitz373]

Had surgery Jan.14,2009 (this year) and do you think I can start short runs 1-3 miles, at the 5 or 6 month mark ? i know it is up to my surgeon, but just curious how everyone else made out with their running ??    thank you ....(so far I have had no problems at all)..

I agree that you should listen to your Doctor. Mine said that I could build into impact activities at six months. At about 5 1/2 months I started jogging on dirt trails, but only uphill to minimize any impact. It went very well with no problems during or after. :)
