My goal was to do 4-5 miles. Possibly pushing it since my doctor told me to keep my miles low, which for me is in the 2-3 range. Anyway when I woke up, I was NOT feeling well, and it was everything in me to convince myself to go. I decided to just do 2-3. After a mile into the run I thought I could go longer, but trusting my body and my gut, told me to only do 3 which is what I did. It was a good thing too, because at about 2.5 miles, I wasn't doing too hot and basically had to walk the rest. I hope it is not because I am THAT out of shape from the week off for my back. I don't think it is because I did the 5K on Tuesday just fine. I think I just had a bug or something. My running schedule will most likely be changing because of my husbands work schedule. He is also training for the marathon which is more important. I think the Sept half marathon is out of the question, but maybe the one in November. I may turn my workout efforts towards Pilates to strengthen my back a bit more, and that way I can do that at home when the boys are sleeping. I will still try to get a run in here or there. BTW.... I LOVE Winsor Pilates but seem to have misplaced my 20 min workout. If somebody out there has it and doesn't use it, I would love to purchase it from you :)
