With no tears and little or no bleeding this week my midwife okayed for me to start running again...slow..but I can do it if I don't bleed a lot from it. Yay!!!!! I'm not really sure how far I went or how fast because duh..I just had a baby and am just playing around right now but it felt good to move my legs a little. Okay...it didnt' feel that good but you know what I mean. I was surprised that my legs were tight..I kind of thought they would feel fresh after sitting on the couch for two weeks. I feel like me and that couch are one...we've really bonded. :) So I went my slow end of pregnancy pace and just was testing the waters. We'll see if I get out every day or not...it's nice that I don't have to push myself but it's also nice that I can get off the couch and go outside for a teeny tiny baby run if I feel like it. I'll start more serious training at the 6 week mark.(meaning I'll try to do 14 minute miles for 1 or 1/2 miles..nothing heroic) Right now I'll just get out for sanity's sake. have a good day everyone. ;)
