Saturday shorty

I ran on both Tuesday and Thursday. Each run was short (under 3 miles) and a struggle. My cardio fitness is basically non-existent right now. If running was always that hard, I'd hate it. But I know that if I just keep it up, it will be easier in a few weeks.

This morning I met up with a few others from my run club that have been struggling with their recent workouts for one reason or another. We slogged out 4 miles and I was able to finish (relatively) strong for a change. I'm feeling encouraged.

Patience, grasshopper, patience.

    Totally in the same boat with you.
    My physical fitness is pretty much gone. Run 2 miles Tuesday and Thursday. Hang in there.

    I'll soon be in those same shoes when I return to running. It's tough to lose that level of cardio fitness you had, but thankfully, it can be regained!
