I recently reported about how my first run (Fri. 2/19)after taking a month off was especially difficult, as expected from the loss of fitness.

To that, Jane76552000 helped me maintain my optimism by reassuring me that I should gain back my fitness in no time. (Which I very much appreciated, being that she’s one of the most knowledgeable on here, and not just on running, but most everything as well!

So then on the following Monday, I went out on Monday on another short run, but this time it felt incredibly EASY, almost back to where I was before I took off.

My fitness level could not have returned this fast, could it?

Another run on Wed. 2/25 (yesterday)... PIECE OF CAKE!

Interesting…
