Getting Started

Well I finally got started running again.  I decided that I have to start somewhere and began today.  Planned on running this morning but you know how days off go so I finally ran at 2pm around Natomas.  I wore my old running shoes, yoga pants, and a long sleeve dry fit from coaching soccer in North Dakota.  I ran for 30 minutes, not sure how many miles I ran though.  I started out strong at a decent pace but I defiantly slowed down after about 10 minutes.  I ran on an awesome bike trail here in the Sacramento area which is so nice and will be a great rollerblading trail on my cross training days :).  However after about 10 minutes I ended up on a dirt trail in this park next to the river.  I continued on that trail in a loop through the coolest large trees, wish I brought by camera!! 
I also saw a family riding their bikes and the little boy was so funny he fell then got back on and I asked him if he was having fun and he said “NO” with a rotten face on, Lol.   Then I saw the cutest dog which I think was a boxer/pit mix pushing around a toy dump truck around the park (so cute).
  Well as the run went on I got slower and kind of tired then my headach started to come on around 25 minutes so I finished out with the headache and hope that it was caused by the cold or something other than running.  Who knows but it felt good to get back running.  Tomorrow I am going to sign us up for the fun run in Elk Grove in two weeks.  Hope I can finish 3 miles in 30 minutes by then but who knows how far I went today the trail did not have mile markers.  Next time I will know!!!
