The Bear Emerges

It's been a long winter. A long, long winter without running.

Finally, it was time to emerge from hibernation.

I got out three times last week. Not far, not hard. But I was out there at least.

My legs felt like heavy logs on the first couple of runs. Then I had the joy of feeling the effects of lactic acid in muscles that have been doing far too little work in recent weeks.

It's good to be back on the streets at least a few days a week.

This bear gets grumpy without enough exercise.
