My First Run Back!!

It was glorious.

So my BRF Runner Jenny works at the sports doctor’s office I go to and as soon as I got the all clear on Monday, she asked, “When are we running?”

I love her.

We decided on a couple of sunset miles that very evening and I was at her door just before 6. We did an easy loop around her neighborhood and stopped for the mandatory sunset pic. I had worn my new purple pants that I’d been saving for this special occasion and totally–and happily–posed for the picture.

I felt good. The legs felt good and I made sure to keep things conversational paced. Before I knew it, it was over. But I wasn’t sad. I was happy; finally, I was back. ❤

–Do you save things for special occasions? My mom does all the time and I always to tell her to use her new stuff–everyday is a special occasion lol

  1. yay welcome back! My first run after Christmas I wore everything new that I just got – new pants, new long sleeve running shirt, hat, gloves, sports bra. It felt amazing lol! Everyday is a special occasion 😀

  2. I WAS SO HAPPY FOR YOU WHEN I SAW THIS PIC ON INSTAGRAM! I’m still so happy for you!!! 😀 Just remembering what you went through at Chicago and the race after, I know getting to the end of recovery must be such a relieving feeling. You are going to have such an awesome 2016 running!
