I've fallen off


Somewhere between a week at the beach, a crazy stressful week at work, and another short getaway, my running has taken the back seat in my life. This is not a good thing. The vacation was understandable, but when I put running behind work, the stress just builds and builds and without an escape, it just becomes a downward spiral.

Last week I ran exactly one time (5 miles) and haven't been to the gym for who knows how long. At last week's run I flirted dangerously with the line where a break is rejuvenating (ran at a 13 min/mile pace!) but if you wait too long it can set you back (I was wiped out for the rest of the day).

So, tomorrow morning I'll get up and start running again and hope I haven't lost too much time. I'm going to try my best to get back on the wagon.
