First outdoor run

[likethewatch]

I ran today! This doesn't seem like news, except that I haven't run on actual ground, not a treadmill, for years. I don't even know how long it's been since I ran any distance. Today I ran about two miles, in about 20 minutes. I usually run for a little longer, but once I got my stride on the way home, I was running faster than I usually do on a treadmill. I was able to keep good form and feel out some things that work better on ground than on a treadmill with a fixed speed.

I might decide that my fancy new running shoes are going to go outside. I'm sure to wear them out before I want to run on a treadmill again.
