My son encouraged (demanded) me to sign up for a 5k race with very short notice. I used to run regularly, but after years of knee problems and 2 knee replacements, it’d been awhile. It felt good to be running again, it’s been so long that I forgot how good it feels when you find your pace and enjoy the moment. 

Should I sign up for another race? What are your fav running tips for starting over after a long break?

I’m glad my son made me to sign up for this 5k, even if it was on short notice and I barely trained. It felt good to be running again, it’s been so long that I forgot how good it feels when you find your pace and enjoy the moment. Now that I have new shoes, I need to set a running schedule. 

Should I sign up for another race? What are your fav running tips for newbies?
