Running Chick

I can't believe how out of shape I became over the past few weeks. I've taken several weeks, or even a month off before and never had as much trouble coming back as I have this time. I got my three miles in this Saturday afternoon, but it wasn't pretty. The first 1.25-ish miles were fine (okay, they were downhill) but the rest were just ... hard.  Uphill into a very cold 10 mph wind. I had to stop two or three times just to catch my breath.  Meh. Here's to hoping that next week is better!
