Back to Running... Finally!

I had my 6w pp app with my doctor yesterday and I am cleared to run!! So excited!! I took Lexi out last night to the park and we went for our first jog together. It was my first time running since the day before I found out I was pg with her. I remember I had already started what I thought was AF and ran really hard that night because I was upset to be at the beginning of yet another cycle. If I had known then what I know now.... (that the next time I would be running it would be with my baby in a stroller!)

Being out of shape sucks! Ugh! I went 3 miles and boy was I hard. I couldn't even make it running the whole time. But, you know what? I'll take it. I will take the suck and the hurt and the sore muscles. This is the hurt that last October I said I would gladly take in exchange for a healthy baby. I said I would gain the weight and get out of shape if it meant I could finally have my take home baby. Well, I have my healthy little girl,  I gained the wight, and now I will happily take all the suck of losing weight and getting back in shape. Bring it on! It hurts sooo good! Give me more! :)

I ran 3 miles again today and I hurt... a lot. I have this bruised feeling on my back right about where I had the spinal, my abs (or lack there of) hurt from my flab jiggling when I run, and then of coarse I have the normal muscle soreness. My body is different then it used to be and I don't seem to be bouncing back as quickly as I usually do. I know it's only  been two days, but it just feels different. I'll keep plugging along, though. The only way it gets easier is if you keep at it.

Lots of Love,
