Back in the game. Almost.

The marathon was two weeks ago and I feel as if it never happened. I went to the gym last week pretty much everyday, each time concentrating on a different muscle group and using the stationary bike for about an hour. Thursday night I tried out the treadmill and with only 20 minutes that I had to spare, I think it went pretty well. I ran the first 11 minutes on 11 kmh, walked 2 minutes and the last 6 minutes I ran on 12 kmh. Sunday night I decided to go out for a run. It was really cold so I wore my Solomon running jacket, which is amazing and I should have brought it to Italy, next time... I ran down Azza to Gan Sacher, cut through the park and ran up Bezalel and back home. I think all together I was out for 20-25 minutes. I met my cousin in the park, by chance, which was nice. We ran a bit together and then parted ways. All in all, I think it was a successful first attempt. My legs were definitely tired on those uphills and I think I should have started out a bit slower than I did.

Tonight I will try again and hopefully, Danielle will come with me this time.
