tonight was my first day back on the running trail after a month or so break. taking a break was a big mistake. ugh. the run seemed to be far worse than the first time i did it! at about mile 3 i was toast. shaky legs, queasy and wanting to die. the good and bad news at that point is that either direction is 3 miles. so the options or to either keep going or to sit and spend the night in the forest. so i'm currently here in the forest writing a blog entry to pass the time. not. that's right... 6 miles and 2 hours (yikes) later we were back at the car. and now whenever i move my legs up or down my hands have to help them. i don't think playing ultimate frisbee yesterday helped with the leg pain today. ugh. oh well. it was good to get out and get some sun and air and some exercise.
my favorite holiday is coming soonsies! yeah ya do 4th of july! a group of us (and a billion other people) will be celebrating in style at the nation's capitol. i'm pretty excited b/c after this weekend i will get to check off one of my 2010 goals... concert! the capitol 4th concert is reba, gladys knight, darius rucker and some other folks. i'm preeeeeeetty excited. i'm also looking forward to some serious spa time at the hotel. yum.
