Easy run.

 6:56 am, 45°F, 40% humidity, winds calm.

I really felt lousy all day yesterday. It wore me out just to crawl up the stairs in my house. So when I went to bed, I was not planning on running this morning. I got to bed at a decent time and had a really good night's sleep. I got up in time to drive to seminary and when I was driving home I realized that I felt a lot better than I did yesterday. So when I got home, I got dressed and went out for a run. I could run later because my husband is home on his Spring Break this week.

My quad felt a little tight during part of the run, but it feels okay now.

I started slowly but then got going a little better the second half of the run.

AP: 9:59. Splits: 10:32, 10:24, 10:07, 9:46, 9:55, 9:26, 0.5 @ 9:31.

Tonight is my weigh-in. It was last Tuesday night that I weighed myself and was horrified. I have been really careful this past week, so we'll see if it shows on the scale. I'll post the net change in my weight tomorrow.

It's SO nice to be able to run and feel good! I'm glad you got your 'mojo' back and could hit the road feeling good and you had a great progressive run to top it off!

OH, I hope the scale is kind to you! i am working double time to get my weight back down to where it was this time last year. i really enjoyed my hibernating months way too much!

Glad that you felt better and got in a good run. get some more sleep tonight!
