Looking Ahead (March 2015)

I just ran another PR (3:28:00), shaving off almost 20 minutes from last year's course time.  I would say that there is nothing but PRs (current 5K 19:48, 10K 40:56, 15K 1:08:04, Half 1:38:36, and Full 3:28:00) ahead for some time and that this procedure has given me the ability to train and run without pain and suffering.  I could not have imagined that my pain wasn't from running, but instead from diseased veins.  If nothing else might help a person make this decision, my personal, albeit anecdotal, success should be more than enough to help persuade any individual into having this procedure performed.
