Finally a run!

I went running today for the first time since October! I am glad that I was able to keep running into my third trimester, but it eventually got too painful and I had to scale back to walking and the elliptical. This evening I was feeling restless and full of pent-up energy, so I decided that even though it was 18 degrees outside, I would go for a run. I'm so glad I did! I only went 1.75 miles, and much slower than I used to, but I actually felt good the whole time, which is sort of amazing. It is the first time since Nathan was born that I did something completely alone, and just for me, rather than running errands or taking the dog for a walk. It felt SO good! Now I'm off to snuggle with my hubby and baby on this chilly evening.
