What's up with so much snow in Mississippi. We had about 5 inches last Friday. Luckily, that was a rest day for me. By Saturday morning, the roads were fine for a run. I put in 7 miles. This is my longest since my comeback. The run was encouraging. I still have trouble on hills, but other than that it felt pretty good.
Running hills has been a problem since my heart attack. The medication that I take limits my heart rate and therefore makes it difficult to exert enough to make long hills. It's very frustrating, but I understand why I have to take this.
I have my first race this coming Saturday. It's a 5K to raise money for the Blair Batson hospital for children in Jackson. It will be fun to be back with old race friends.
