3rd day in a row

Third run in a row. So much for easing into running again after the marathon. It was a talkative 6 mile run with the Cousins and Kwik Trip Gal. A lot of promises were made. Remember if you don't keep them - no more running polls. For the rest of you..... you had to be there.

2nd run

Ran again today.... BRRRR. 55 yesterday and 30 today. Shorts and T-shirt to long pants, long shirt and a head band! The unpleasant feeling of "numb butt jiggling" came back. I had enjoyed 5 months of NOT experiencing that session. It is not one you ever get used to.

I felt stronger today which was good and no aches and pains developed. My quads were a little sore yesterday after running and I am guessing they will be again today.

Jill was a no show. Too bad, I had money to give her. Guess that means I get to pocket it.

Back at it post marathon

First run after the marathon today. I almost gave myself another day. Not because my body felt like it needed it. In fact, I was starting to get antsy about running again. Nope, it meant another day of not getting up at 4:20. I thought the running gods might be on my side when yesterday morning I saw that it was suppose to rain this morning, but I must not have sacrificed enough of my soul at Chicago because last night the chance of rain was no longer being forecasted. Elyse said it was raining at 4:35. Unfortunately, I checked outside at 4:40 and missed my opportunity to bail. As they say... early bird catches the worm or not in my case.

It was an okay run. My quads started getting sore and I can feel them post run too. We will see how tomorrow goes.
