I am running again! I ran for the second time in almost 4 months today after spraining my ankle back in May. I can’t go far, and my ankle is a bit sore, but it definitely feels great to be outdoors again.
Surprisingly, my body feels super light and strong. Having been hardcore about my diet and yoga practice has had a huge impact on my cardio. My lungs have a little ways to go to get back into real running shape, but I am in much better condition than I thought I would be.
I haven’t committed to any races yet though! I’ll see how the ankle holds up after a few more runs before setting any more crazy goals! At any rate…I have about 5 weeks left to the body transformation competition…and right now anything doesn’t align with my goal of building lean muscle is getting cut from my routine. Distance running and building lean muscle don’t go hand in hand.
