I already had a run planned for last night when one of the ladies in my running group posted. She asked if anyone wanted to walk or do a slow 3 mile run. I couldn’t say yes fast enough. We met in her neighborhood at 7:15 pm. We had one other lady show up too with her 4 week old baby girl. We were seriously impressed that she was coming out for a run at 4 weeks postpartum. They loved my rainbow socks and I even had someone comment on them while we were running. 🙂 We headed out and it was great to have company. We chatted the entire time and I loved it. They were wonderful and very motivating. They pushed me to run farther than I have without stopping. We did take a break after a pretty big hill. My legs felt good and I’m proud of my progress. We did the 3 mile route in just over 40 minutes and a ~13 min/miles. Pretty much dead on with my current pace. At least I consistent. I very quickly stopped worrying about how fast or slow I’m going. I’m moving and that’s better than most that are still sitting on the couch.
Very true.
