April 24 is a productive day.
The temperatures have risen to 80 degrees. They draw me outside to work in my flower garden. Spending almost two hours cleaning up half of a small section. I do try for perfect.
Sitting on the knee pad, I lean this way and that cleaning up last years leftovers and my core muscles tell it’s been years since you have done this work!
Realizing the sun sets soon I change clothes and run. My body struggles as it tries to run but most of the three miles consists of a run/walk combo.
A thought about my first year of running invades my mind while I run. During my first week of running I was able to run 5 days a week! That lasted until planting season! I had to cut back running to have strength to weed and plant.
I am planing to clean out the rest behind the tulips before running tomorrow.
BUT TOMORROW HAS NOT YET COME
I realize THAT THOUGHT while running was from God! He was reminding me of the toll yard work takes on my body!
The next day, my core muscles struggle to allow me to sit up or even walk around the house.
Since I didn’t make 30 days running in a row I Believe the 30 days really means running daily taking into account recovery time, but not caring about the weather.
