A reprieve of sorts (yes, already!).

Today was a half-day at school, which means we were granted a reprieve from track. The next practice is Friday.
I ache so much, I can't even walk down the stairs without whimpering. (I'm trying, though.) And my arms, my legs, and even my tummy hurt. I've been stretching, though, and that helps--every night before bed, every morning, and now, whenever I'm watching TV, to help keep myself limber. I don't watch TV that much, though, so it shouldn't be too bad...
I'd just like to mention that, since we jogged around the fields fifteen times yesterday, and one lap sprinting, the total was four miles around the fields and probably another from the warm-up. Can I just say I haven't run five miles, well, ever? To do it and all those warm-ups in three was harsh, but I'm sure I'll get used to it. I don't want to discourage myself early on, although being cut from the team probably wouldn't be very fun. We'll have to wait and see, I guess!
Love,
an achy, pained Caiti
