I also decided to start running a little bit, which quickly turned into me running about 10 miles a week. For seasoned runners that's not much, but for me that's a LOT of running!
I've never been able to run (or wanted to run) because of this weird itching in my legs due to inactivity I think. But I overcame the itching and now I can run more than a mile at a time! Yippee!!! My time is still pretty slow though. I'm running just under 10 minute miles, but it's better than not running at all.
I'm also taking ballet twice a week now and hitting the gym the other nights. Also volleyball starts next week and I've really never felt better.
Over the weekend I got fitted for some beautiful Mizuno running shoes and I can't wait to run a few miles in them. Last night I ran 2 miles in them and felt great.
For now my running goals are just to run a decent 5k and maybe be able to run a 10k down the line.
Time to go running!
