The Party's Over...reality (sometimes) bites

Well, after almost two weeks of partying at the Olympics in Whistler, I'm now ready to get back into the grind and pick-up where I left off. I did do some running while I was away, but nothing significant.

Yesterday, I went out for my first run, post-Olympics. I felt hungover (even though I didn't even drink) and like I was the fat kid in gym class- you know the one : the chubster who no one picks for their team because they are as slow as molasses in January. That pretty much sums up how I felt.

Yup.

My parents were over and so they looked after The Lunchie while I ran (at a snail's pace) a 4.5 miler. There was virtually no wind and the weather was fantastic. So I have no excuses. I don't want to beat myself up about this, so I'll keep this lament short.

I'm going for another run this afternoon. It will be a fresh start.

Positive thinking. Positive thinking. Positive thinking.

I'm sure you're not that fat kid in gym class ... hope this afternoon's run is better!

It is tough to get back in the groove after time away. Give it a week and you'll be used to the norm again!
