back in the saddle

Well, after a week off with a yucky cold, I went for a run yesterday. It actually went better than I had anticipated. I was almost to my second mile, aiming for 2.5 and I was thinking, "wow, I actually feel pretty good, considering how sick I've been!" Then just as my Runkeeper announced I had 2.25 (first .25 was my walking warm-up) I got dizzy. Really dizzy, so I slowed to a walk to get my head together, but then I had to stop and put my head down for a minute. I realized that 2 miles was a good start back and it was time to go home. I had some muscle pain in my right quad, but it feels better this morning. So, all in all, a pretty decent start back.

I think it's cool that so many of my friends are running now too. I never thought it would be the kind of club I could be a part of, asking for advice about where to run, and pacing and choosing races. I can't wait for summer to run the boards :)
