I didn’t expect my first day to be a breeze. Especially since I’m battling knee and hip issues alongside a new back issue. I’m internally 80. It’s fine. It was not good.
I decided to start with 15 minutes and plan to increase my time by 5 minutes per day. I am so so out of shape, but I don’t want this experience to pass me by and not remember my struggles along with my successes.
While I had way more fails here than successes. My key takeaway is seeing my best pace at 12:57/mi, I still have my athleticism somewhere inside of me. I am not thin, that’s damn good for a former runner riddled with injury.
Through parts of my run, my injuries started to come out to play. I found myself struggling to get my legs to move properly, an issue I’ve never encountered before. I was trying to protect myself and propel myself forward all at once. I wouldn’t want to see a video of it. Maybe eventually I would find it funny, okay. It’s a little funny now.
Only up from here.
