Back in the saddle...

with running.  And it was rough.

For the longest time I've been telling myself I need to get started running again.  I am committed to the half marathon next summer since I was able to defer my entry for this year and I really just need some exercise.  Constituting walking Samson as exercise is not working anymore.

So I set up a running schedule for myself - to try and hold myself accountable.  I decided on the week days that running in the morning when I let Samson out is going to be the most likely time I will actually do it.  So I set up yesterday to be my first day.

My alarm went off.... did I run? No.  So last night I set out all my stuff before I went to bed so that I would see it when I woke up and feel guilty.  Well, that seemed to work.  Samson and I went on a run this morning.

It was be no means far and certainly not fast, but at least it was a start.
