A 4 mile run Wednesday was challenging through late afternoon humidity, but it was done. Today's 6.25 mile run (a repeat of the run that almost did me in) went much better. A few block-long walks aside, I kept a good pace, and was even mindful of the hills attempting to drag me down. I envisioned a buoyant head that lifted my body, avoiding, at least in my mind, the trudging and dragging up the several larger inclines in my neighborhood.
So, a little progress, and a step in the right direction. There will be a longer route to take, whether this next week or the week after.
I've earned the party that I'm going to tonight. :)

Runs #18 and #19- not like riding a bicycle
After a week away and a cold that knocked me out last week runs 18 and 19 were sorta... sucky.
#18 was a 4 miler after I returned from a week in L.A. I completed that fine, but I certainly felt the one week absence. #19 was today after acquiring a cold for some reason (probably from the seething cauldron of evil called a United Airlines return flight). My endurance wasn't where it was, so I decided to take a much shorter 2.5 mile run around the neighborhood. It was hot too- my arch nemesis. I plan to try again Wednesday; gotta get back up to normal.
