Day 27 Revisited

I'm catching up over here!

I am so tired from this darned flu that I've been doing a whole lot of nothing! On purpose! That said, I had a really good jog today. I took my new Kensington route and added a couple extra loop-de-loos and, according to walkjogrun.net, I traveled 3.75 miles. I think it is safe to imagine that with my warm up and cool down walking that rounds up to 4 miles. Anyway, it was nice to get back on the horse.

And I am glad I decided to get back on the horse today. The power of the mind is amazing. Initially I was thinking I was too tired to run so I would just walk. Then I decided I would just jog as long as I wanted and I could always stop and walk. Well, I jogged and it was not difficult. It felt good and I felt strong. So, as I was planning, I made an assumption. I am glad I decided to challenge that assumption!

So.....apparently pulled a muscle on my left side. Weird because it is not a leg muscle - it is above my hip and below my ribs. Man. I'm ignoring it for now!

Saw one of my coworkers jogging when I was out. Small world and all that.

Good for you. Glad you are feeling better from the flu but hope now the pulled muscle doesn't slow you down.

Totally forgot about it until just now, actually. Good night sleep works wonders!
