Well, come that particular Saturday morning, I chose to walk! But it was a good walk. And I believe it was that added rest on my lungs that has allowed me to get going so well this week!
This week has been great. Some how I have managed to find the only dry times (except for today) to head out! Today the weather was perfect, great temperature, and just a little bit of rain (not enough to soak through my non-water proof sleeves). I had been starting to get a bid bored of my typical loop at work, so, I decided to switch it up today and ran the opposite direction! It was great, the oh so big hill that I usually run up, was a wonderful down hill coast! Who knew all you had to do was run the opposite direction? Ha!
As I ran today, I assessed how far I have come since I started Team in Training. As an asthmatic, running has never been something that I have been able to do well, at least not without needing my inhaler regularly. As I was running—a bit quicker than usual I might add, I noticed how well my lungs felt and how clear they were. No inhaler. This is a wonderful reward.
Thus, the training continues!
