Day 189 - Run Forest Run!

Today, I ran for the first time in a long time. I used to run two or three years ago. I enjoyed it. I would run with my wife at least three times a week. We would run around the high school and do two to three miles at around an 9 minute pace. I even did a 10K in Edinburg. I had to quit running after I injured a muscle in my knee while running on the Hike and Bike in Mission. I chalk it up to fate. I discovered the trails while running on the Hike and Bike. If I hadn't had injured myself I probably would have kept running. Since I couldn't run I took up biking four years ago and never looked back. Anyway, back to my story. I went for a run today during lunch at work. It was sprinkling and overcast. I started out slow with a kinda of limping gait. To my surprise after about three laps, my hip and leg felt better. I picked up that pace and was running with normal stride. I ended up running 6 laps or 1.5 miles. It felt good to be able to run again. Run Forest Run!
