Monday 3/23.. Let's try running again

So, I haven't been running in a long time. All of running these days consists of being late or short sprints when I work out with CJ.

My knees have been feeling pretty good and I've been feeling like I need more exercise, so I ran after work briefly today.

This is no huge accomplishment as I'm no runner. I'm just happy to not experience pain.

I ran to the cemetery and back with a short break in-between. This run was about 10 minutes long.

Previously, my right shin would ache right below the knee. This began to be a pattern that only happened at the mile mark. Then later it decreased to just .8 of a mile. Then it decreased to less and I stopped wanting to run.

I thought about seeing a doctor for the issue, but so far I haven't. I probably should get new running shoes. Until then, I concentrate on my form more than on how fast I'm going or how far. I try to hit my butt with my heel on every stride and to only hit the ground with the ball of my foot.

So far, so good.
