[RUNNING AGAIN, FINALLY!]

WELL THAT THURSDAY APPOINTMENT WAS ACTUALLY MY LAST P.T. APPT AND I GOT MY CLEARANCE TO RUN!

I WAS ALLOWED TO START AT A 1/4 MILE AND UP MY MILEAGE BY 10% EVERY RUN, AND TO MAKE SURE I SPACED OUT THE RUNS AT LEAST EVERY OTHER DAY.

OF COURSE THAT WAS IN FEBRUARY AND NOW IT IS JUNE...

A LOT HAS HAPPENED.

I'M STILL RUNNING AND ACTUALLY DID ALMOST 2.5 MILES A COUPLE WEEKS AGO. SUMMER IS IN FULL AFFECT, AND IT IS HOTTER THAN HECK. OH... DID I MENTION WE MOVED!? YUP, NO MORE BEACH RUNS. WE'RE FULL ON COUNTRY FOLK NOW, AND I LOVE IT!

WE HAVE THE CUTEST LITTLE HOUSE AND A WHOLE ACRE OF LAND! WE BROUGHT IN A SHIPPING CONTAINER FOR THE WORKSHOP, PLANTED A GARDEN, GOT CAE A QUAD, AND ARE LOVING LIFE!

MY RUNS HAVE TAKEN A BIG HIT. YES I'M AT 2.5 MILES, BUT I HAVEN'T BEEN AS CONSISTENT AS I WOULD LIKE TO BE. I'D TO SAY THAT THIS WILL CHANGE STARTING THIS WEEK. I'M ALSO VOWING TO START DECREASING MY COFFEE INTAKE AND INCREASING MY WATER INTAKE. IT'S BEEN SUPER HOT, SO I'M HOPING THAT THIS WILL WORK TO MY ADVANTAGE.

I RAN TONIGHT AFTER DINNER, AND DID ABOUT 1.5 MILES. SO FAR WITH ALL OF MY RUNS, I'VE BEEN KNEE PAIN FREE. WHICH IS HUGEEEE! MY MUSCLES HAVE BEEN SORE, BUT THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO BE ;D

I'M HOPING TO WRITE MORE BLOGS THIS WEEK TO TRACK MY PROGRESS.

CHAT SOON!
