RAN TODAY

Nov 16, 2009

Ran on the street today for the first time in a long while.  Felt great!!  I knew running on the treadmill is different than the street, but it was not too bad at all.  I felt light on the feet and was able to carry a pretty good speed. 

I'll continue the treadmill and will continue to phase in street time.  My only problem was that f*cking TERRIBLE itching I get when I exercise vigourously for the first time.  It makes me want to .  I hate it.  I'd rather be in pain.  As a matter of fact, it itches so bad it's painful.  Thankfully, it subsides after a few minutes.  By the time my run ends, my legs are covered in scratch marks.  Looks like I met up with Freddy Krueger on the trail.

Don't know what causes it.  I think I read it's the blood circulating vigorously through the veins.  I've had this issue for years, even when I was in the Corps.  Back then I would get it if I didn't run for a week or two.

But, glad to be able to get on the street today. 

Over & Out
