Oof.

I managed to go jogging again this morning.

I'm going to filter future entries in my exercise log, so if you want in on it, comment here.


Woke up at 6am at DH's prodding (which I asked him to do. thank you!), and was out the door by 6:15am. Jogged pretty much without stopping, except for the occasional mud puddle, or downed tree for about 15 minutes. Turned around and alternated walking and jogging for another 20 minutes. Got back home just as DH was heading out the door for work. Didn't quite get to the 1.7 mile marker on the trail, but I don't think I was far from it when I turned around. So something around 3 miles total, I think.

It was a little easier this time around. I don't feel quite so wiped out. But I'm still sore. Did I mention how sore I was after Sunday's run? Soreness. Especially my thighs.

Running along the trail is nice, but I won't be able to do it after it rains, like the forecast is threatening in the next few days, so I'll have to figure out a good road route.

If I'm really going to continue this, I'm going to need a good pair of shock-absorbing running shoes and a good sports bra.

I'd sign up for it. Also, since a number of people on my friends list are doing exercise regimes this summer, interested in a group exercise community? [livejournal.com profile] ahsu and I kicked the idea around a few weeks ago, but were both to lame to do anything about it.

I've promised myself good shoes (mine are passable, but I wear my sneakers everywhere, so they won't be passable if I actually run regularly until the end of summer) in September if I meet my exercise goals between now and then.

A good sports bra is an absolute necessity. I forgot to throw mine in my gym bag for my last frisbee match and damn do demi-cups and lots of short, hard sprints not mix well.

I might be interested in a group exercise community, but it would help if I actually knew some of them IRL, you know? Maybe we can convince some of the above people to join, too...
