5 months later: Return to Running
It’s been awhile since my last post. I met a major milestone today so I thought I’d post something on my blog page. Today I ran 5K on a treadmill without any walk breaks for the very first time. And so far I’m still in one piece! No aches, no pain!
This past weekend was the Marine Corps Marathon. My girlfriend and I went to the Mile 23 marker and cheered on the runners (especially the slower folks) and supported them by handing out candy, cookies, bananas, and pretzels. Watching all of those runners really got me thinking of how much I missed running. So I made it point to go to the gym tonight and seriously begin on my recovery to race again. I think it may still be awhile before I pursue a marathon. But I definitely want to get back into running 10K’s and perhaps set a goal on running a 10 miler and/or a half marathon. We shall see!
