Please sing “Falling Slowly” from Once in your head as I am whilst writing this!
I got up early to run before work. I actually planned to get up earlier, but sadly it was still dark at 6:15, so I snoozed another 30 minutes until there was day light. I don’t mind running before the sun with a headlamp and vest, but since i don’t know my neighborhood well I figured it was best to wait.
I had mental plans to run 3 miles this morning, but thanks to dropping the spare house key in a crevasse between the house and the sidewalk (thankfully BEFORE I locked the door or else that would have been baaad) I was frustrated and behind schedule.
I started with about ~8 minutes of walking/yogging (y on purpose) as per doctor’s orders. Then ran/yogged/walked out and back for the 2 miles. I hate how out of shape of I am, but I gotta start somewhere. 2 miles in 28 minutes. I feel good about getting out and active before work, but I also feel like HOW IS IT ONLY 10:15AM?!
In other news I started my anti-inflammatory meds over the weekend. All of the side effects hit me: dizzy, stomach ache, numbness of the feet/legs. The doctor said that might happen, so he advised me to take half a pill with breakfast and half with dinner. I still feel weird, but I’m going to give it a few days. I’ve also made it a point to put my inserts in all my non-sandal shoes since I got them last week.
