I just came back from running with a friend... it's the first time I've pushed myself to run in over a year... it's certainly been a rough one, I'm glad I feel like I don't have to hide in my room anymore. I miss running (even though my calves are burning!) and I'm really excited to train for the 5K I'll be running in September.

    i've always wanted to be a runner, but never really enjoyed it. i see my friends that have taken it up, and they look great! i think, after reading your post, i need to give it a go...a serious go...and work my way into actually maybe even liking it a little :) THANKS!

    keep up the great work, and keep me posted on your new running adventures!

    Go for it! Don't overdo the training though, please don't.

    Such a good feeling to get back into something you obviously used to really enjoy. All the very best with your training and eventually the 5k in September!
