Sheep are so stupid. They really are. The spend all day getting bossed around by a dog. And they run away from me as though they couldn't kill me just by sitting on me. Sometimes as i walk past them in the fields they baaaaa at me and i baa back and then they baaa at me agin. They think I'm a sheep. Or they think that I think I'm a sheep.
So, yesterday, guess what I did? Drank coffee in a cafe and read a magazine? Yes. Had dinner with my brother in laws ex-sister in law? Yes, I did that too.(It is as weird as it sounds.) Slept in after Welsh fed Little Cwtch both time she woke up in the night? Why yes, I believe I also did that. Shaved my legs for the first time since Cwtch was born? Correct. But the big news is this:
YESTERDAY, I WENT FOR A RUN!!!
I've started the couch to 5 program again, so once again, a total of 8 minutes running and 17 minutes walking. Can I just say, running after being pregnant hurt in ways i never thought about. People tell you about the stretch marks and little bellies you are left with and the achy shoulders and leaky boobs...noone told me my back would absolutely kill or that my stomach would ache around my scar, the next time I ran.
The first stretch was alarming but somewhere between warming up and finishing, the old bounce came back and i was loving it again! Of course it rained in my face and my sneakers got soaked but it felt so good. Shout outs to Brit.
So, the official goal is this: (drum roll please....) I am going to be able to run 5km by the time we go back to Melbourne in April. Running three times a week and maybe some sit ups in there too. Little Cwtch finds the sight of me doing a post natal exercise video quite hilarious so probably a bit of that too.
It's two years after I first started this running blog and somehow I have found myself back in square one!!
