Short-Term Running Goals:

Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent.  Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me.  Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

Oh my gosh. I am so happy to be back that I think I might cry. This morning I walked out of the bathroom and tweaked my back somehow and I almost did cry. I was not going to let anything stop me today. So when I started out I would take a few steps and have to walk, this went on for a half a street but then I just told my back to "back off!" and I ran through the pain. It loosened up at the end of the street so I was able to just go. Felt magnificent, glorious, amazing, awesome, and every other positive adj. you can think of. Including bitchin. Never mind that it was slow. Never mind that my IT band yelled at me at the end. Never mind that I'm going to be sore from 4 measly miles. I needed it soo badly and am once again SOO grateful I have running in my life.

Nice job Lysa!
