Past one hurdle

Today I got my MRI scan.  Bloody noisy and scary that machine was.  Fortunately my whole body wasn't in the tube as it might have been a different experience if it had.  I meet the consultant a week tomorrow so I'll know about my future running "career" then. Fingers crossed.
I then went to the chiropractor.  Considering on Friday I couldn't move my neck, today full movement was restored.  I've been recommended to leave swimming for another couple of days but can start running, assuming my hamstring is ok, tomorrow so I've set my alarm for 5.30am.  I can't wait. So lets see how the running goes over the next week and then what the consultant thinks. 
On Friday I am going open water swimming.  I've got 7 weeks to get from 2k in the pool to 10k in a river - now there's a challenge!  It's not an ideal training schedule but I am determined to do it.  It's unbelievable to have my neck sorted. I feel normal and am going to appreciate every step of my run in the morning.
