Day 2 and a recovery walk
Yesterday was torture, but in a a good way! I ran three miles and pretty much felt “good” pains. I always have had a reoccurring back issue(minor) that comes and goes with various types of activities. Well, I really felt good yesterday and my back was content as well. I ran around a community park and it was wide open, hot and sunny. I carried my water bottle the whole way not knowing how and when I would need to hydrate. The first mile I only drank occasionally. The second and third I drank about every five minutes. Needless to say, I was two strides away from passing out but I DIDN’T and that is so awesome. Now remember I am carrying 75 pounds of extra weight so the fact that I ran anything more than a mad dash to the hot dog cart was amazing for me! So, today I did a moderate level walk with some nice long hills to get all that lactic acid out of my muscles. I was hesitant to go for fear of strain or injury but I just went at a good pace and everything went great. I even pushed my two year old in her stroller. So far so good. Day off tomorrow for full recovery. Perhaps a leisure walk with the fam.
