Back at the beginning

I had to go to work yesterday and had considered doing my first run before I went, but then thought better of it. I wanted to really enjoy it, so I waited until I was finished work and I came home and put my running gear on.

I was so excited... you'd think I was going to a big race or something. I decided that seeing as I now have a Garmin with a working heart rate monitor, I may as well use it from now on. There was no doubt in my mind my heart rate would be all over though.

So, I went down to the green and did my 1 minute run/1 minute walk for a mile. I was surprised that I had no pain or uncomfortableness at all in my foot, although my breathing left a lot more to be desired.

Today my foot feels fine, although I'm ashamed to say that I have DOMS after only 1 mile of running and walking. Oh well...I may be back at the beginning, but you have to start somewhere, don't you?
