I went running yesterday. For the first time in God-only-knows-how-long. I only ran for a mile, thinking I'd best not push it. That's it's been a really long time, and that I'm really out of shape. That I didn't really want to be in pain tomorrow (today) and if I pushed it, well, I'd be prostrate on the sofa, begging the husband to feed me bon bons.
All I can really tell you is that one mile for me is now pushing it.
And all I really want right now is to lay on the sofa and have the husband feed me bon bons.

Posted by: Ith at May 17, 2005 06:24 PMIt sucks to start running again. I ran throughout college and my military service with a pr in the 5k of 16:12...I have since been injured and I have not been able to run a lot. I get out there thinking that I should be able to run a sub-20:00 5k with little to no training...not so much. I was able to do a few 5ks at around 25 minutes and a half-marathon at around 2 hours...not my best but it is a start. Running is a cruel mistress. Keep with it and go for the pr.
