Hello runny peops, forgive my flippant tone, but I’m very excited.
I have just returned from my first run in 5 WEEKS!!
I was going great guns, training for the Cardiff Half, when Covid struck! Never had it before & I wouldn’t recommend it. I think the after effects are more annoying than the actual dose - knackeredness and strange muscle aches in the legs in my case. Anyway, that was the end of the Cardiff Half and I’ve been very cautious about exercising again since.
But today, I decided, was the day. A gentle 2K to get me back in the game. I was pleasantly surprised that my breathing was fine, so I must have retained some fitness (been walking the dog which helps). But my legs were definitely wondering what was occurring and sad to say - and I hope I’m not over sharing here - I felt there was definitely more wobble in the bum department. A good incentive to keep running! 😊
