I’m back from a long vacation from running. After the DN 10K, I stopped running. I am not sure why, but I did. I started missing runs and before I knew it, even running a couple of miles became a struggle. I am amazed at how quickly I lost all of my fitness. Now, I am at a point where I can’t run without constantly taking walking breaks.
My plan is to build my base back up again this Fall/Winter. Hopefully, next Spring, I will be in a position (fitness wise) to start training for St. George 2009 or some other Fall marathon.
During the last week, I started reading Sasha’s wife’s blog and it really inspired me. I started thinking to myself, “wow, this woman is nine months pregnant, has a large family, yet she still manages to find the time and energy to run.” |
