Six Mile Run… after long time off.
I’ve been so busy with the holidays and work, that I haven’t been taking time to exercise. Usually, as in the last 4 years or so since I went from overweight to Ironman, this time of year I will take time each day (even Christmas Eve and Christmas Day) for myself to go out for a ride or a run. The exercise helps me clear my mind and keep calm.
But this year, I’ve been held up in the house, mostly doing work on our new product launch, but also spending time with the family for the holidays. It’s been hard on me. I have felt more worn out, and agitated, and I think that it’s been hard on my family as well. They can see that I’m acting differently, and they’d rather I be relaxed and mellow from exercise.
Anyway, I finally got out and went for a run. Just 6 miles… easy… 8min/mile pace. It felt good to get out there. A couple days later, and I’m paying the price… I’m more sore than after my Marathon a couple weeks ago. Almost 2 weeks off has made me collect a few cob webs.
