Today, I wanted to go for a good bike ride. Well, it was supposed to be in the 40s and windy. Not what I had in mind. So, I decided another day of running was in order. Since I ran for 3 miles yesterday (33 min), I thought I'd run for 40 minutes today.
The run was great! There were only 2 students up at the track (I still don't know where they all went). It still amazes me how much easier it is to run with so many pounds off of my frame. I could have run longer, but didn't want to push it too hard. I'm still nervous about my abdomen. It doesn't hurt though, so I really need to not worry about post surgery pain (1 1/2 months now). The thing is though, I want to be in good shape for my triathlon training. I don't want to screw that up. So, I'm working on improving, but not killing myself in the process. It's working for me so far.
Tomorrow, I want to ride my bike. It will be the first ride with my new swept back handle bars! I rode around my driveway the day I got it back from the bike shop. It feels so good. I have high hopes that it won't hurt my back anymore. We'll just see what tomorrow brings...

I'm so jealous of your running! My knee has kept me from running for 2 months, totally derailing any race plans I had this spring/summer. You go girl! Can't wait to hear how the triathlon training goes...
