See Diva Run

August was going to be my triumphant return to running. I went for one jog with the puppy, and a lot of walks and soon found that I was unable to keep up. It seems I’m really out of shape. Eventually I had to ask the puppy to settle for short walks for a few days, and then we started over. We take a long walk of 5 or 6 miles on Sundays. During the week we take an evening walk of 2 or 3 miles. We also take a half mile walk with Admiral in the afternoon, and several shorter walks at other times of the day or evening. When I see people jogging, I think about how much I enjoyed it back in the day, but my brain and feet can’t quite grasp the idea of doing it now. Before I started running in 2004, I was walking 5 miles daily. I’m hoping that if the puppy and I get enough walking in, the urge will return. In the meantime, I’m enjoying the walks.
