I got into distance running myself, and was doing pretty well (six-minute mile pace) for awhile...before baseball and basketball injuries crept in. Then I displaced the vertebrae at the base of my spine in 2015. I can still do it...but not as long as I want. And then I hurt, get frustrated...and don't do it.
But I still want to.
Seeing this gives me motivation. So, thank you.

Wow - what an incredible story. Best of luck getting back into it. 6 min mile pace is ridiculously fast.
