As I wrap up my final year of undergraduate education, it seems fitting to explain a lesson I've learned recently:
Sitting in the sun for a prolonged period of time with a mostly exposed back is, contrary to popular belief, not good for runners! Especially those runners who heavily really upon a tight, supportive sports bra.
Exhibit A:
This was taken Saturday evening... I'm pretty sure it's gotten redder.
How can I run when it hurts to much to put on a sports bra? I can't! If it still hurts tomorrow, to hell with it, I'm running anyway. This may not be such a bad thing, though - my calves are killing me today! They didn't bother me at all yesterday, so perhaps an extra day of rest isn't the worst thing. I also think it's time to kick up the strength workouts - I gotta get back into my groove with squats and lunges.
I've got to get through one exam and then I am D-O-N-E!
Happy 2023! And I'm Moving To Substack...

Hi thanks for stopping by my blog. As someone who also runs while weighing over 200 lbs I have to say that it does take guts. But then you get to look back and say, look at what I did, I can do anything.
Sorry about the sunburn. I tend to have very Irish skin (EXTRA freckled) so I tend to have to hide from the sun.
