I do!
Now really!? This is the Northeast not Florida or California or Texas!!
But my doctor said I could try running 1 mile on the track!!
Being the impatient person I am and not having run for 45 days, I couldn’t wait…
I rushed home, had dinner and waited for it to cool down to a mere 90 degrees and went back to the track at work.
I was a little nervous… my first run after an injury is always scary but I quickly forgot about my foot and concentrated on breathing in this HEAT. I stopped after each lap to grab some water and continued at an easy 11 minute pace (which did not feel easy) until I had run ONE MILE!!
Running on a track is pretty boring. But it is better than not running at all. I may try the treadmill if it cools down. I am not sure how long I can wait before hitting the road.
We’ll have to see how the foot behaves…
Happy Running!




Yay for getting a “legal” mile in. So excited for you. 11 miles is fast for me these days. Not a bad pace!

Glad you had a good run (in that heat!!!), but take it easy – you don’t want to be put on the sidelines again from overdoing it!

Yay for running again, boo for the heat! Hope that it continues to heal and that you can continue to run.
