  • AM 2.5 mile run outside http://connect.garmin.com/activity/187970988
  • PM 1 mile shake out run.  Just kiddin... my sister has started running (YAY!) so I went with her.  I can't wait till she's running more miles so we can run together. :)

After feeding the baby and putting her back to sleep, I realized that if I hurried, I could do my run outside instead of on the TM today.  It was a lot of fun!  I was a little too zealous and excited at first (and worried I would make James late for work), so I went out too fast and got winded, but I found a good groove after about 1.25 miles. 

Here's what I have so far for "ease back into half marathon running."  It's extremely tentative.  I may do less or I may do more, all I care about is that I don't get injured because I did too much too soon!  I just need to keep focusing on what I can do right now and not what I used to do or what others can do!  Hopefully I can be wise with this thing. :)

  • 3 mile easy run

It was 6am and baby didn't want to go back to sleep after eating.  So we decide to try out the jogger.  She fit much better today than she did 2 weeks ago....they really do grow fast, don't they!  It was awkward at first, but I got the hang of it eventually.  It slowed me down quite a bit, but I think I'll be able to go faster once I get used to it. 

P.S. She fell asleep within 30 seconds and was OUT the entire time....I don't think she minded the jostling. :)
