Running time!
It's been a while due to my extreme reboot protocol this past month, so the trick today will be not over-exerting myself even though the body can usually leap back into a *first* workout well. (One then pays for it the day after. 🙃) We'll start with a light 3k, 5k tops, and some runner's yoga.
Happy Tuesday, CoSo! Hydrate and stretch out those cricks and cracks, if you can!

I too am starting to reboot my running ... erm, "routine" sounds like too strong a word. I despise street harassment. I'm mostly safe from it here in the suburbs, but it's one reason I hate running in the dark and won't generally do it, at least not alone. I'm sorry you're on your own just now, but hope your person comes back soon.
Happy reboot! "Routine" does sound pretty severe, doesn't it? I hope you find joy in a return to movement soon. 🤗 Thank you for your kind words!
@MLClark Why were you harassed?
I'm not sure what kind of answer you're expecting, but feminized people tend to get harassed with great frequency when they exist in public spaces. It's part of life for most of us.
@MLClark I have a daughter and I know a lot of feminized, et al. After 65 years on the planet nothing shocks me anymore. It's flat out wrong. And, to me it's a ton of self hate that does this.
And... only harassed once this morning.
But didn't get overwhelmed this time, even when he followed me for part of my route.
After Jan-Feb's aide crisis for a family in need, & then the robbery in February, I started feeling more overwhelmed than usual by the street harassment while being without friends close at hand this year.
The person who makes me feel safest is working day and night in another country right now. It's been tough to stabilize mental wellness alone. But! We press on.
