I definitely hurt today. After a 5k. That I ran in close to 40 minutes. Yikes! What happened to the me that used to run 10 miles in 90 minutes without a problem. Oh, I know. She didn't hardly run for 6 months. Grrr. . . feeling frustrated with my lack of fitness and a little down. I just need to use that feeling as a challenge to be better. I know I need to stay consistent and be kind to myself, and that I cannot get back to my previous level of fitness overnight. I know that. But it still doesn't feel very good.
It doesn't help that somehow I've gained another 2 pounds after last week. My body fat percentage is the same, so it's probably not terrible. It could just be a fluctuation, but I've been pretty good the past couple of weeks. Gotta keep going.
