Well, I did it! I ran for about an hour with my daughter and dog today. Whew! I am really out of shape. The Jazzercise I do, three times a week, isn't cutting it I guess. Maybe my body just isn't built for running. {Maybe it's the fact that I am over 40} Or maybe I have been too lazy to run outside. I can run on the treadmill and not feel the intense itching I feel in my legs and backside when running outdoors. My daughter says it because I am sweating. I sweat at Jazzercise and when I run on the treadmill, so what gives? My theory, I am allergic to running outside. My body's way of saying you were not born to run. I will admit, running in the open felt good, and gave me some much needed energy. Who knows, maybe I will keep trying. Even if that means I have to take an oatmeal bath to stop the itching afterward every time, so be it. Who doesn't like to soak in the tub right?! There's my silver lining.
