The first run after a short or long hiatus is never easy. 

I conquered my first run in months under this morning’s 8-ish am sun. It was nice to be out soaking up the sun and breaking out a good sweat. However, I won’t deny that the run was gruelling and the last 1 km was completely a ‘mind over body’ thang, which had me popping down on the nearby bench once I heard Shalane Flanagan’s congratulatory message  over the Nike+Run app. 

Rewarded myself over a brekkie of green tea milk, 2 slice of wholemeal bread with melted cheese and tomatoes. 

Such is, the simplest pleasure of life that I shall continue to embrace wholeheartedly.
