C25K Week 4, Day 1

It was fitting that I did this run on Labor day because that's what it was, labor.  The first two runs felt like my legs were running through wet cement.  I just could not pick my legs up and kept doing the "old man" shuffle.  After the second set of running I was able to finally get my legs stretched out and lengthen my stride to a somewhat normal length.  I'm a little sore tonight but I should be okay by wednesday for my next session.  One thing that was reassuring was my total distance was back up over two miles.  For the first few weeks it seemed like as more run time was added my total distance went down.  That's not the best outcome when I have a 5K coming up.
