2 Whole days off from running, waiting for my quads to return to normal. Holy weirdness, Batman! It seemed like a lot longer. I guess that I really need to admit how important running has become in my life, and how grateful I am to be able to do it.
So I took a nice little jog with each of my little boys one at a time--totaling a whopping 1.5 miles (ave. pace 15:00). It felt really good, so tonight I will do another 1.5 at around 10:30 pace or something like that.
Later: I procrastinated my 2nd run until rather late at night. I got all dressed and everything, went out, ran 3 steps, and froze in place. There were some really scary looking people staring right at me, and I allowed myself to be intimidated. My bad for putting the run off until it is so late that even (possibly) harmless teenagers take on the ominous look of escaped convicts. |
