This lady's back in business...

So after taking since last Tuesday off of running, I decided to try and run again today. I'll admit, I still have a cough, but it's not even close to being what it was...so I'm thankful. I did a 3 mile warmup and then did my 4 LT miles at a 7:36 pace! That's "spankin' it" for me, so I was happy about that. I'll admit, since I took the week off, I had a little something to prove, but I just focused and it wasn't all that hard...I cooled down for 2 miles and then coughed a lot after that. I didn't cough while I was running though. Anyways, I hope running fast today won't make my 16 miler on Wednesday hard. Just glad to have a run in the bag this week...Sometimes having to stop makes you realize how great it is.

    As weird as it may sound, Not RUnning can actually make you a better runner. Welcome back, and great job on the run. Sori about the coughs though. Good luck with your long run on Wed.

    You are awesome, strong, and I’m very proud of you for not taken the easy path. Sometimes it takes low points to make us realize how strong we really are. Keep up the great work, rest well between runs, and set no limits on how far you can go.
