\"\"<\/a> I cannot tell you how excited I was that we finally got to turn the clocks back this weekend! I was getting cranky because it wasn’t getting light out until 8am. That makes for a late start time for running!<\/p>\n

It was causing my morning to run later than I like and then I wasn’t eating breakfast until super late. \u00a0I was starting to feel off balance which was the cause of the crankiness.<\/p>\n

With the changing of the clocks I was able to get out at 7am for my run this morning. \u00a0YES! \u00a0I know it won’t last long because as we get later into November it’s going to start remaining darker longer in the mornings but for now I’m loving it!<\/p>\n

It was a good week! \u00a0I got several runs in and while a few were shorter, 2.5 miles, I did get a 3.5 run in this morning. \u00a0My hip injury<\/a> is a really long and slow process of healing. \u00a0Even longer than when I strained my right hamstring!<\/p>\n

However this week there was a bit of a turning point or a realization, so to speak. \u00a0I was running a 2.5 loop and was doing that distance because I was a little short on time and that’s all I would be able to fit in.<\/p>\n

That run was strong and I knew that if I wanted to keep going, I could. \u00a0My body was strong and my legs were strong. \u00a0My breathing was spot on and I felt great.<\/p>\n

Knowing that I was strong enough to keep going and would have been fine, was an amazing feeling. \u00a0That’s when I could finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. \u00a0When I realized that while this process is super slow, I will be able to come out on the other side of it and be a strong runner again. \u00a0YaY!!<\/p>\n

I’ve also been working on building my strength back up by doing weight training. \u00a0While I don’t think I’ll be running double digits any time soon, I do think that I’ll be able to make it up to 6 miles this winter.<\/p>\n

How’s your training going?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
