My Neck, My Back.....

Been away from running for too long now.  It started with vacation, next there was work travel, then there was life and we ended with lazy.  Yeap all of those things have been factors as to why I have not been out there in a while.  None extremely valid as I could have run through any of these circumstances but they are all what I call the truth.  Lately one of my biggest reasons for not getting out there is the time in which the sun decides to rise and set.  Can't run in the dark so running is out of the question right now since most of my free time is during hours when the sun is set.

Well today I've decided to get back in the groove of things.  I laced up my sneakers and I hit the pavement.  While out there I thought that the pavement had hit me back because I was STRUGGLING! With a capital struggle. While I was out there up hill hurt, down hill hurt, no hill hurt, it just all around HURT! I was able to push through that first mile and finished a 13 minute 33 second  mile run which is pretty consistent with my last run but I tell you what I had to walk back.

Well the first thing that you do when you have fallen off the wagon is get back on and today I declare that I'm back on.  Even though my body aches, my weight is up and my distance and my stamina are low, my hopes are high and just like before, I'm Destined to Run! Check out today's workout details below.
