Time to Blog Again

In the interest of starting my own business and all that goes along with it, I temporarily abandoned my personal blogging.  And, you know what?  I've started to miss it.  I can't guarantee that I'll have much time to post - but we'll see how it goes - 'cuz I'd like to get back at it.  I also miss many of my former blogging friends.  When I accidently deleted my old blog many months ago, I lost many of you.  And those I've found, I have to admit, I've been terrible about keeping up with your blogging.  But, here I am again.  Let's see where this takes me this time around.

Today my goal was to run 7 miles.  I've set my sites on some upcoming races and it's time to re-focus and start training again.  My legs felt kind of achey and dead when I started my run this morning, but fortunately, I was running with a group so the conversation helped distract me.  Around the 2-3 mile mark, Sam and I split off from the rest of the group to get in a longer run.  The hill we had to climb really winded me today, but a brief walk while I took off my jacket, and I was good to go again.  I felt decent overall, the rain held off, and we wrapped up our run with a total of 7.75 miles.  Not bad!  

I've got one more run on tap for the week - about 5 miles tomorrow.

The next race I have coming up is a 10K in early March.  And a half-marathon in April.  I'll do my best to keep you posted!

Run well, my friends!  :)
