Back in the Shaddle

Well, this week, I started my post marathon running. Seems like a long time ago that the Atlanta Marathon had it's way with me. About 3 months I think. But BOY oh BOY, did the ATL Marathon take me down. OOooh, what hills lie yonder in the land of Atlanta! My joints, ligaments, muscles, etc. hurt for months. I am a Florida runner. Flat-land-Sean.
Everytime I would try to go for a run within the first couple months, I would get about 3 minutes into it, and my right knee would start aching hard! So I'd stop and go home and ice it, and do nothing.
Well this past Monday, the sun was shining and I decided to give it a go. I made it 2 miles with no pain, felt like being alive again. So now I can begin preparing for the next torturous marathon. Maybe this next one will kill me. :)
