The Sunshine!!

Well I am grateful for the beautiful weather we have had here the past couple of days but........I came to the strangest realization this morning as I awoke with the sun streaming in my window.....This is not going away. I will never be better for the rest of this pregnancy. Even when things improve I will never be able to regain the level of activity I once had as far as working out and running. With the sun shinning and the birds outside and the cool breeze my legs ache and tingle to hit the pavement. I miss the sounds of my ipod and the fields and eagles passing me on my route. This part is going to be hard.....I keep envisioning last summer when I trained for my 1/2 marathon and I thought that was hard, but being so restricted is actually harder. I know in my head this is only temporary and I can't wait to come out on the other end of this. I keep visualizing how I will be energized and ready to ease back into my routine once the baby is hear and how maybe now I won't put off doing that full marathon I have always wanted to do. They always say you don't know how much you miss something until its gone and while trivial.....running is my escape. So for today that is the thing I am really missing and I truly long for.
