The Secret Sharer

Jumping in....

To make myself finally get off my bum and out the door, I’ve signed up to run a 5K with a group at work. Since hurting my hip doing Capoeira last summer, I’ve had a hard time getting started with any exercise program. I decided resuming my rehab exercises and throwing myself in headfirst may be the only option. Time will certainly tell, although the initial attempts were good. My first run last week ended up with me limping for two days afterward. The second attempt on Saturday was much better, no limping at the end and only moderate soreness. Today went with the guys at work and no limping and little pain or stiffness. Perhaps the best way to treat an injury is easy exercise and not just rest. I’m determined to do hardly any speedwork for this and just working on my overall conditioning. Anyway, it’s nice being out again, spring in Devon is glorious right now with blossoms and green everywhere. Seeing all of this beauty can’t help but make one feel joyful…..
