Well..I did it..first time for 2 miles. I could have of course done it the day after I had the baby except that I'm no dummy and give my uterus plenty of time to heal. It felt sooo good. My legs were not sore. That is one part about running pregnant that I won't miss....no more feeling like my legs are going to fall apart every time I step on them. I think I maintained a good pace again today. Hard to say because I didn't take the Garmin but I know the feel of 20 minute pace versus 12 and it was on the 12 end again. I'm so grateful to be able to move again. I did feel a bit tired but pushed through it. I'm sleepy now and may take a catnap before facing the rest of the day.
(for instance..i'm rocking William in the bouncy seat as I type and his brother accidently dropped a book on his face...luckily it was a paperback...sigh....) |
