Phase II. Day 1: 11km walk

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
What a break, albeit a forced one.
My back is not as good as it was but the doctor said I can walk and I can jog/ run at a slow pace. So I took that advice to heart and walked 11km from the office to the house.
Good exercise, I may say. The sweat and the 'little' breathlessness were more than welcome but the dust and the insolent matatu drivers almost ruined my walk ...
Officially, I am back.
Ndakaini is 3 weeks ahead ... Boy, am cooked but, well, ready to be served!

Back pains

Folks, I am down with lower back pains. I can't even walk properly nor stand for long so ... will be back as soon as am able. In the meantime, I'm enjoying reading everyone else's blogs.
Oh, welcome back Jack.

Digress, a wee bit

I beg to digress today...
I don't have any report on running today. I didn't run and haven't done so for a week, again! Reasons? So many but I don't think they will do any justice to my love of running.
However, I have taken up push-ups every morning. I did 35, a measly thirty-five, this morning. Every morning that I fail to run, I will be doing the push ups, a minimum of 50. This will move to 100 the second week so on and so forth.
But running is top of the agenda ...
