Take off running

I jog/walked again last night. 2 nights in a row! I am so proud. Wouldn't you know it, it sprinkled when I got halfway around the lake. I was lucky. It started pouring as soon as I got back to my jeep.

Not that running in the rain would be that bad but I was planning on going out after that and the hair would have been a disaster.

This is on the lake I am running around. Its a very nice lake, goes behind the houses, townhouses, and condos and one part goes along the road. I think there are 4 bridges on the path and dammit, I still don't know long of a distance it is all the way around.

Go me! Keep up the good work.

Running makes me feel good

I did it! I started running again. Okay, I eased into it. Last night, after I visited the library (gotta get my murders to read) I went down to the Pavilion lake.

Okay, let's back up. After the library, I bounced on our trampoline for a little bit. This helped stretch out my leg muscles.

I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV, but it makes sense to me that bouncing stretches your leg muscles. If I'm wrong, please please tell me.

Anyhoo, after bouncing I went down to the Pavilion lake. I started out walking, not slow and then started running. I think I walked, ran, walked, ran, walked, and ran. I have no idea how far it is around the lake, I'll have to GPS it tonight when I run again.

Yes, I am going to do this again. I felt fantastic! My legs are a little stiff today, but not horribly so (another reason why I want to do this again tonight).

In summary, I'm proud of myself. I've been wanting to get back to running for sooooo long and I've been sooooo lazy. This is great.

Aren't you proud of me?
