I did something today that I haven't done for five years...I went running.  Sorta.

Did 2.5 turns around Ohio Stadium, jogging along the big planters just outside the gates.  Let me tell you, I am freaking out of shape for running and the muscles I normally use for biking are not happy being stretched another way.

But, wow, did it feel good (once the burning wore off)!  Rar!  :-)

It's almost swimming season, too...maybe I need to take up triathalon-style cross-training.  I bought a new swimsuit in Vegas last summer, so we'll see.

The OOTP trailer...exciting, no?  Can't wait for July.

Wow - you sure are active! I never enjoyed running because my leg muscles started itching after a while, though had I been more consistent with running, this wouldn't happen.

I have always felt very conspicuous when running, so I enjoy cycling better. (Swimming in public really needs no explanation, does it?)

Hopefully I can work up to running as something to even out my leg muscles - some are disused when cycling, so they need to be built up before I hurt myself.
