We observed Daylight savings this morning at 2 a.m. so I got an extra hour of sleep. I love sleep. I was refreshed and ready to go.
It’s been 28 days since I last laced up my sneakers for a proper run. Since my legs no longer scream bloody murder, I know it’s time to get back into the run of things.
I needed back up. I drove to the Running Room to meet up with some runners. Karen and Tara couldn’t make it. I knew Sona, Brent and John would be there. Nice to see familiar running faces. A quick 6k was in order.
I made sure to do some dynamic stretching before I left my apartment. I wanted to start off on the right foot so to speak. Preventive measures.
It was -2 C. The paths were slightly icy with a little snow. It wasn’t impossible to run. I just jumped on the road when the pathways were too slick. I stayed back the slower pace group because I did not want to push myself too much.
