Jogging

I had just started jogging again when I found out I was pregnant with Logan. I spent the entire pregnancy itching to run, and now that I've shed the pregnancy pounds I'm ready to hit the pavement. I haven't received the official okay from my doctor yet but I know my limits. On Wednesday I strapped Owen into the new jogging stroller and went for a 2 mile jog. I was rather surprised that I lasted that long without stopping. It was raining/hailing and windy, which probably helped me. Had I been walking, I would have been stuck in it longer. So Wednesday was an exciting day for me, and I look forward to the day when I can look back and laugh at how wimpy 2 miles is.

Today Chris, Logan and the dogs joined Owen and me on another 2 mile excursion. I only jogged for a mile or so, because my hips were hurting. We had a nice time despite the wind.

I plan on starting my weight-lifting again soon. I'll wait for my doctor to give me the go-ahead before I start though. I see her next week for my 6-week postpartum check-up.
