Endomondo Running Workout

Endomondo Running Workout: was out running 3.34 miles in 39m:13s using Endomondo.  It wasn't a fast run, but it was a run.  I didn't take any walking breaks.  It was still hard though.  A three week break is enough to lose some, but not all. I'm still learning.  I am always telling my clients that a set-back doesn't erase all of their progress - and it is a lesson I am learning too. When I ran that marathon ten years ago, I didn't know this.  I tried to run a few weeks later and couldn't pick up where I left off, so I quit. A break that long doesn't mean starting over, it means starting again. I didn't lose everything - I did run the whole 3 miles. It was exactly the kind of run I needed.  A successful one. One that promises that more will follow. Oh, yes.  A little CBT goes a long way, but nothing brings it home like a good run. There will come a day when I cannot run.  Today was not that day!
