A First Time, In a LONG Time

I dusted off the old running shoes. Yes, I've been hiking, biking, and walking a lot. But, I knew eventually I'd miss running. And the six miles I did on Saturday(knowing this is NOTHING compared to all you Ragnar peeps) felt great! Yes, they were long, HOT, and uncomfortable but, it was kind of like finding my sea legs again. After mile 4 my mind went into run mode, and my body followed. It stopped complaining of the past injuries piping in on the conversation, and it wholeheartedly agreed. Even though it took me 1:26 for 6 miles (far all you math whizzes, THAT'S SLOW) It doesn't really matter, I haven't run for almost a year. And it felt good; signora love handles!
