Well, after my first post, I have started back into getting my butt into gear. I ran my first 5k distance - in a whopping 35min. Could this be an indication I have finally hit rock bottom?
Keep in mind, my run was during one of the coldest days in Ottawa. I did not have my dog to keep the pace, and I felt like I was a chain smoker- my lungs could not handle a complete 5k run in one shot.
However, it was fun. From that point, I decided the following day (Monday) to run again. I completed only 3k - but 3k is better than nothing. I felt energized!
Tuesday was spinning - first class of the year. I did great (to my standards), did not get injured, and am craving to go back. Could I have done a double? most likely!
Next week is a new week.
