Getting back into the Rhythm

I am very happy the way my running is going lately. It has been a terrible summer for running, since I tore my hip flexor by doing too many hills and the weather here was just unbearably hot. I'm getting back into it! I have to, since I felt by august that I was at ground zero again. Thank goodness for muscle memory. To any avid runners who might be reading this, please don't laugh at my progress :) I ran 8K today, and totalled about 28k over the past week. It's coming back, my run today was one of those runs where you feel like you can go forever... I almost did but I don't want to push it too hard too soon. My goal is to do a half marathon in a year from now. I've never done one before. If running goes well this winter I might do the Goodlife half marathon in May. We will see! I am going to invest in some snowshoes as an option for winter running this season. I heard its tough, but it will only make me stronger. I can't wait to run again!
