And I am happy to say it didn't stop me from getting my run in each day. That's the thing, you see. What do you do when your routine is blasted out from under you - rain, snow, humidity so bad you can hardly breathe? The answer is this: you plug along as well as you can with what you have. Your body might be surprisingly open to the change.
Mine certainly was. Those hills of Maui are no joke, not San Francisco grade but enough to make your hamstrings talk back. By the third day those wonderful tree-lined hills overlooking the Pacific were old friends. Lesson learned: it doesn't hurt to push. A little bonus prize I received back at July's doctor visit: down 50lbs and 2 & 1/2 dress sizes.
