Hi! I've been pretty quiet on the boards this year. I had a baby in April and decided, what the heck, let's sign up for the WDW Marathon! I was supposed to run Dopey this past January, but I would have been 1. 24 weeks pregnant, and 2. it didn't happen.
SAFD: Following Galloway we are up to week 10 (right? is my math off?) so heading to 11 miles this weekend. While I ran and strength trained my entire pregnancy, up until ~36 weeks, nothing prepared me for how difficult it would be to get back to running. I waited the allotted amount of time after birth, did my lame and boring, but vitally important, exercises to ensure I was strong enough. I am soooo much slower than even during my pregnancy! Regardless, I'm sticking to it. Recovery has been pretty good, with minimal aches so far. Overall, training has been successful given all of the factors going into my new running season.
