    It's my short, fast run today: 3.25 miles in the midday sun with hills, and loved every minute of it!

    I have a short run scheduled tonight - 2 miles. I'm going to try evening running as opposed to early AM running. I'm hoping that will work better for me.

    How apropos! After almost 3 years of not running, I got my 55 year old butt out for a 30 minute run this morning. I've been riding a stationery bike for 50 minutes almost every day for several months gradually increasing restistance and I wasn't sure how effective it was "fitness-wise". After several year in the Air Force, running used to be my exercise of choice, but my weight had been up quite a bit. I was short on time this morning, the weather is starting to get a little better and I'm 30 lbs down from the beginning of the year, so I decided to give running a try again.

    My initial running goal was to go at least 10 minutes without walking. I felt great at 10 minutes so I kept going. At 30 minutes my breathing was still fine (actually it was easier than the bike), but I was starting to feel my ancient shoes and even more ancient knees so I walked for a few minutes and called it good. Now I'm ready to get some new shoes (and keep an eye on the knees). YAY!

    4.3 miles pushing a kidlet in the jogging stroller. Great run, except for the part 3 miles into it when said kiddo took off her diaper (while strapped in to the stroller) and handed it to me.

    This is hilarious! Will be running after work!!! However long my legs will take me on a treadmill - it's too hot outside!
