I’m back on the road and running again. With my back feeling better, I’m ready to start training again but this time I’m going to go slow and work on strengthening my core strength as well. I just have to say that waddling around for 3 weeks with excrutiating back pain is not cool. Anyway, I’ve been taking it easy and starting from square one. I started with a 1-mile loop the other day and gradually added distance each day. I’m on my third day in a row and I’m up to 2 miles and finished it under 20 minutes…I’ve still got it! I just wished that the weather was cooler. I HATE running in the heat but I HATE treadmills even more. At least I’ll get a nice summer tan. 🙂
