Run: 1 mile
Time: Sub-10
Mood: Machine
Hammered out a mile this morning, then walked another lovely mile. My legs are super sore from running again this week, a testament to the power a 7-week hiatus has.
If you're wondering how long it takes for your body to regress...not long.

One is Better Than None
Well kids, I got back on the horse this morning. And by "horse" I mean "treadmill." Did a decently quick mile and then walked another one while watching Law & Order.
Pretty damn perfect morning.

Merry Christmas to...me?
Read the date of the last post.
Read the date of this one.
Then the last one.
And then this one again.
Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with your computer.
It's not you, it's me. It's been roughly seven weeks since I posted about running. And it's been roughly seven weeks since I was actually on a training schedule. I mean, don't get me wrong, I've run. Just not a whole lot. Not even a whole little.
I think I burnt myself out with my race schedule and training schedule over the past 12 months. Race after race after race. Run after run after run after run.
So I basically stopped working out after the MCM 10K. I walked a 10K over Thanksgiving with my family, but that's about it. I haven't done more than two or three miles since.
I think I'm ready to get back to it. My muscles have skipped town, and every piece of clothing I own is super snug. So I think I'm ready to gradually work back up to the level I was at about 6 months ago.
I've moved to Alexandria, so there are a lot of new trails to be explored, and the gym is right across from our apartment. There's no time like the present.
Shall we?
