Back in Black

by // // Comments off

Yesterday (Sunday) was the first day that I woke up pain free since I crashed my bike over two weeks ago.  I decided that if I woke up pain free again on Monday morning, then I would attempt to run three miles.

 

This morning I felt some soreness which could best be described as a cramp, but nothing like the tightness and pain I had been feeling for the past 17 days.  I took a deep breath to “test” my pain and there seemed to be little pain present.  I quickly threw on my running clothes (which have been sitting on my dresser for two weeks hoping to be worn again) and ran out the door.

 

I took it slow and steady and ran three easy miles.  It was tough, not due to any pain, but my muscles haven’t been used for so long and my legs seemed to fight me every step of the way.  It was hot and I thought I was going to die, but it felt so good to be running again. 

 

I’M BACK! 

YES, I’M BACK IN BLACK! 

(Should I state the obvious and mention that my running clothes are black?)

    HAHA! THis is a great song–it will forever remind me of my HS boyfriend who was in a ska band, and they threw in the famous Dunh! DunDUNH! DunDUNH! Ba-da-da-wow-wow! part of the song into one of their songs (you know which part I’m talking about, right?? =) )

    The crowd always went WI-ILD!

    Glad you’re back to running! I admire you–I only run if someone’s chasing me 😉
