It has been awhile since I have blogged but it's also been a
very long while since I have ran! I used to think in high school, as I watched
past seniors graduate, that I would never let running die out of my life. Then
I graduated and slowly or maybe rather quickly let running die out of my life.
I had not really missed running because I substituted it with CrossFit which
still included some running. These last few days I have craved an eight mile
long run but quite frankly I am not capable of doing that right now, which
makes me sad. Why did I let myself stop running? I guess the only good thing
about this sorry case is that I can start into running again and rebuild a
solid base. I am in really good shape but I will still need to build slowly
from the beginning. Today I began that process. I invited Cassidy to come
running with me and we ran two miles. It felt great and I am excited to start
running more and more . . . But I think I will need to get myself some new
running shoes before I get too far in.
