After my Post on the 12th, we drove to Hoboken to visit Rob for a few days. I did manage one run on the waterfront, which was lovely.  However, somewhere along the way I picked up a stomach virus that knocked me out for about a week. I got back on the trail on Sunday the 22nd with a very long walk. Yesterday, on Monday the 23rd I did an 80 minute workout at the clubhouse that included strong core and upper body weights and a 20 minute run in the pool. Today, the 24th was a Tuesday and I ran on the roads around four seasons for 2 miles and finished up with four pretty strong water tower hills. My back was sore from yesterday‘s work, but I managed to get it loose as I ran and finished well. Once again, when I sat for an hour or so after the workout, my back tightened up pretty seriously. I think it is something I will need to work through until my back gets strong again. Anyhow, I’m now in training.
