back in the game...

so after a tough month (march) and I am getting back into the game. i ran here and there in march but nothing to write home about (hence no writing)--although most of the runs i did in march were along the beach where i live. the other factor that kept me from running was difficulties with my health and the side effects from the medications i am on. 50-60% of the time, when i stand i am dizzy and when i walk i feel like i am on a boat. it sucks to say the least.

however, in spite of all the challenges i was able to get out on sunday for an hour+ run. i went with the dog, which i typically do not like, but it went really well AND for the first time it days i didn't feel wobbly. it was a victory for me.

so far this week i have made 3 of the 4 scheduled runs for me and am planning to make up the 3rd tomorrow instead of doing the bonus run of the week. my training schedule is pretty packed for the next several weeks and i am sure the months ahead...

and today's run was one of those few times where i didn't think about anything--my mind was clear--ahhh.

also, as noted in emails, i have to bow out of muddy buddy. it is simply not a good time for me to spend the money--but do not consider this a victory for you!

Can you add "bailed on it" to all my races so far listed in the preview. I suck.

i will do so, and i would like to add bailed on it to my 3rd run for the week that i was supposed to do today.
