Into the Groove

I feel like I have finally kicked the jetlag. I did go for a jog today and I did manage to keep decent pace. I did it in 15 minutes. I am trying to avoid aggravating the shin splints I've got going in my right leg. So I'm planning on doing two laps each day I go out this week, and upping it to three laps next week as long as my shin is feeling okay.



I am planning on doing part of this different. I'm going to try to get out everyday if possible. I'm not trying to be over ambitious... I just want to stay active and I feel so much better when I am active.



I also got to pull out my new "dedicated" running shoes today! I wore them for the Combat Medic Run and the Race for the Cure last week... I figured they needed to be broken in so I wouldn't feel like crying after my first jog in them. Here are what my shoes look like:



They felt great!!! Well, I will be back tomorrow with a new post and more about my journey tomorrow. FYI: I will be measuring once a month and weighing in on Wednesdays. See you tomorrow!
