My first post-Chicago run

After watching and reading plenty of highlights from the New York City Marathon I decided to get out there and complete my first run since crossing the finish line in Chicago two weeks ago today.

The Garmin stayed home, but I have done the route before and know it was a 3.5 mile run. Didn't even make note of what time it was when I left the house so I don't know how long it took. But that doesn't matter right now anyway.

I plan to go out and by some winter running clothes this week as this will mark my first season of winter running. Last year when I took up running (almost a year ago to the day), I opted for the treadmill for the first few months. Can't imagine going back to the treadmill on a regular basis.

And I must say, I'm loving this sleeping in on Sunday morning thing.
