Getting back to swing of things

Allergies and cold have been hampering me from making progress with my physical fitness. Running was hard, could hardly breathe but now finally starting to feel better. Yesterday, went for a long fun! Met everyone at the Crabtree greenway. Some of us went and did the 5/1 intervals and some of us did 2/1. I did the 2/1 which I find a lot less stress on the joints and allows me to get back into shape slowly.

I met up with Laura and Pam and we had such a good run. Laura and I know each other and we just started talking, running, fast walking, and back to running. Pam, my bff is getting back into shape little by little. This is the first time she went this far. We started at the greenway and went towards Shelley lake and then we went around Shelley and then back to McD - a total of 7.1 Miles - I was very proud of myself and we all had a great time getting to know one another.

Laura told us about the upcoming half marathon at Outer Banks that she is thinking of participating in. It sounds like something I would like to do.

And she reminded me "You don't have to go fast, you are with friends, and you can do it, and do it together to finish the race"

It was a good day!

Until next time

Sue
