mimb: T WEEK 15 – LENGTHY

We all got to see taste baby T at 12 weeks squirming and bouncing about, which gave me the confidence (and my new found energy) to start getting my butt moving. I acclimatized to run a lot. Like A LOT. I really haven’t ran much for the last 2 years and, in reality, longer than that. I would run so much I felt like I was flying, it was so freeing. I used to have to run. If it was 11 PM and I hadn’t ran yet that day, I would go out. Not for extensive, I wasn’t some marathoner, I just had to move my legs. I’ve had this attribute since I was a kid despite asthma. You get the gist, I loved running. Monday after we had returned, something clicked. I had to run. This is not the in good time always to lose weight”. Though he’s a clinic / family Dr. now, he used to specialize in women’s health and pediatrics. He’s delivered many a baby until he had babies of his own. When being effectual, please consult your own family doctor prior to making any decisions. My doctor made his assessment on me and me alone. Monday continually I set up my clothes and mentally prepared myself for the struggle the next day. Tuesday at lunch I made my way to the river (just blocks away) and did my first 20 minute torpid jog in a year. I don’t think a ballerina could have been more light-footed than me. I took lots of breaks and listened to my body – I think I actually jogged for a total number of 5 minutes in that 20 minute span. Was I breathing easy, was my posture good, was I gliding in hopes to not shake up my baby. It went as opulently as it could with confused lungs and legs. I went again on Thursday and continued to listen to my body and it was easier that day. It felt so good to be back out and doing something other than sitting. Newfangled air, breeze through my hair, etc.
