Doctor said I can run

It's been 15 days since my double hernia surgery. I was checked today by the surgeon, and he said I was making a great recovery and I could now do anything I wanted, as long as I listen to my body and act accordingly. I specifically asked him about running, and he said "yes". He suggested I start with walking and mix in some jogging. I'm planning on walking tomorrow and Saturday, and then on Monday starting some jogging. It will be interesting to see how long it takes me to get back to my six miles three times a week.
