The celebrity mom admitted that the initial months of not being able to do her hobbies were excruciating for her. Fortunately, yesterday, Rica was able to do her first long distance record, being able to run without feeling pain.

Aside from the message, Rica also shared clips of her crying and breaking down amidst her ordeal.

Here is her full post:

Some have the goal of making a new personal record. Some have a goal of beating others’ records. My goal yesterday was merely: run pain-free during and even after. To run at all, actually! Cause not much of you know how painful it was for me not only physically, but more mentally, emotionally, morally, be told “stop moving” especially when physical fitness was intrumental in getting me out of my passive suicidal state. Those initial months were excruciating to my spirit. The demoralization hit me hard during those weeks and some of those moments I was able to record in the latest episode of “Life Begins At Forty.”
