Back at Last

Of all the things that I have accomplished in the last couple of months, keeping up with my running blog has not been one of them. It seems that the Christmas season came and went and somewhere in it all I lost the desire to run. Huh? Wha? I checked for fever, strains, and pains but there weren’t any. I just didn’t feel like doing it. So I simply didn’t. Then sometime last month I had a “What the hell am I doing” kind of moment. I mean really, I’ve come this far and ran this many miles and I was just going to throw in the towel and quit. I don’t think so dude! So I dusted off the running shoes and pulled out my favorite pair of tights and hit the road. It wasn’t pretty then and it really isn’t that pretty now. But for right now I’m happy with just putting in miles. I never started running to become elite nor did I do it ever to truly compete. Please, I’m just over five feet and still packing 15 extra lbs. of baby weight from a baby that turned 6 in January. Not too mention the boob issue yet again. Yeah, it’s still there and honestly I think I’m going to say to hell with expensive technical bras and buy a $5 one from Wal Mart and duct tape the bad boys down. Okay not really, but there are days when it’s tempting… Tomorrow there will be more, but for now I’m off to do yet another rain run.  Gotta love Spring in Virginia.
