Talking about running

[Guest guest]

Someone mentioned "run with it" in a message and I just remembered I didn't really talk about it, just mentioned it briefly the other day....

Saturday night 6 couples slept out and left the kiddies with relatives. It was just after midnight and I had to go up to the room to take my LDN. I was just talking to someone about my experiences the last few months and told him about not even being able to run, or jog, or walk fast.

I had told him I was only able to run like a total of 4 blocks in the last 2 years. 8/19 last year when I ran 1 block, then 2 blocks, and one time in November where I ran a block. I haven't tried every single day, but I haven't even been able to get started, the few times I have given it a go.

So I got off the elevator and felt like trying again. I was on my way to take my first 3.0 dose, after 38 days of 4.5, so I wanted to see what it would feel like... I felt like Forrest Gump! Run Forrest, Run!

I ran down the hallway, which isn't a straight-away, it makes a quick turn to the left, and then right. I was able to Open Up too. Not quite as fast as I used to be able to run, but when I realized my room was coming up, I flew Right passed it! Whoops! There's my room. LOL

I went in and made my final decision to drop back down to 3.0 and took only 2 of the 1.5 caps. I felt slight tuning fork vibrations, my pulse was starting to slow down again and I didn't feel like I was going to fall over. I figured I would run back to the elevator if I could do it again.

I wonder what it looks like for an elderly couple to see someone running at them in the hallway? LOL I started running, turned that left and right into the other corridor and just coming out of the elevator was an elderly couple. Well, I couldn't stop now! So I just waved as I whizzed by them.

When I rejoined my group my pulse was racing along... I don't wear a watch any more, so I didn't time it, I was still catching my breath. My entire body felt like a tuning fork. But it felt GOOD!

Maybe this summer I can work on running. They say we need to exercise, but every time I run if I get that tuning fork sensation, will it get worse after a while, or will it get better? I guess I'll find out if I can keep doing this.

I think I was able to run faster than I did back in August and November, and I didn't feel like I was going to fall on my face... well, ok, maybe once, slightly, but I didn't, not like last year though.

Over the next few weeks I'll see if I can do it again. I usually can't even get started, even walking fast isn't easy or sustainable. So I don't know if 4.5 has anything to do with it, or was just good timing Saturday night.

So I'm back on 3.0, and I think I've noticed what was different... another day or two should paint a better picture.
