I ran for the first time in a week yesterday. I decided to do just a short 4 miles from my new house. I ran from the house and then all the way down Grandview (the street that overlooks Pittsburgh) and then back. It was a scenic run but I couldn't concentrate on the view with my lungs burning and my struggling uphill. I thought the run only had 1 big hill but I was wrong...there were 3 - and that was just on my way out. I had to tackle 3 hills again then on the way home. It wasn't an easy first run.
Today my shins hurt from the hills - my legs aren't used to constantly running either up or down hill. I plan to run 8 or 9 miles tomorrow. I plan to run somewhere flatter...
