Does anyone here run? Long distance running with an AN?

I run just for exercise and to be outdoors most days. Mostly 5 mile jogs during the week and one longer run on the weekend that I increase by a mile each week starting in the spring, like now, until I am going 10 miles and more. I ran up to the day before my surgery. Post surgery I had complications that prevented me from running for 7 months but I had no problem starting back up
once my bobble -headed feeling subsided, and I was 66 years old then which was March 2013. If your concern is runnng again post treatment, I'd say you have a good chance to run the same as befoer diagnosis. The time to runnning again varies by the person. Good luck.
