Once again I'm reminded that cycling =/= jogging.
And that the latter will help with the former damn near exponentially, the reverse...not so much.
Which is one way to say I've restarted Couch 2 5K yesterday, and my thighs are not happy with me. Like, at all.

This is kind of odd in that I've never really experienced sore muscles from jogging. Most of the time what's challenging isn't strength but stamina. My cardio-vascular health is great...at resting. It's only when I try to do something that things get dicey.

But I did it! And now I just need to stretch more.

I think tonight I'll try my hand at some push-ups, so that way when I go jogging tomorrow my legs won't feel lonely about being in pain.

If it helps at all Lance Armstrong ran the New York Marathon once, and despite all the bicycling and all the chemistry, said it was the hardest physical thing he had ever done....?
