Getting back on the wagon...

As I pledged last night, I went for a run after work tonight. All afternoon I actually looked forward to getting back out and running. I hadn't downloaded the Podrunner podcasts yet (I'm actually downloading as I write), so I just used the 30 min run playlist I made. To make it an interval run/walk I did my warm up, then ran for 2 songs, then walked for about 1 minute of the next song, then ran for 2 songs again. I think I managed the run quite well despite the break I've had.

I took a route I've never run before because I don't normally run near my work. I enjoyed running in a different environment, and even thought of some route variations I could try in the future. Now that winter is nearly here and the days are getting shorter I think I'll have to schedule my runs straight after work more often. It's good to know there are some enjoyable safe routes nearby.

I feel good knowing I have taken the first step to get back on track with my running.
