First Run



I need to Remember this
I went for my first run in my new shoes yesterday. I didn't get out until about 10 am, and by then it was already 80 degrees out. My street is fairly well shaded, and I even made it half way up the huge hill at the end before I decided I had enough and turned around. I definitely have to get out a little earlier to be comfortable. I may even try to get to the high school track so I'm not dealing with cars that drive far too fast on my curvy, hilly road. 

My right ankle is a little sore today, but I suspect that was from stretching rather than running. I always prided myself on my flexibility in high school (that was generally the only part of the physical test I passed each year). Now, my legs are so tight I can barely put my hands flat on the floor when I when I bend over. I used to be able to do that without even thinking about it. I should start up with yoga again...
