Take an old fat guy that runs sometimes, then have him sit around with pneumonia for about a week over the holidays (meaning FOOD), then have him run outside on the 1st day of the year, when it is pretty cold (okay, cold for Tennessee) and you have a recipe for a really slow run, with some walking thrown in for good measure.
I actually felt good, but my legs were stiff and did not want to move. Back to work tomorrow and the treadmill at lunch. I still feel confident for the half in April. I should be up to running it without issue, now if I can get Mike and Matt to commit. (I can run with Mike, I will just have to meet Matt at the finish line about 45 minutes after he finishes!)
