Finally!
I went running on Monday. I did half my usual track, so in total I ran 2,5 km. It took me 20 minutes and my pulse was 173, which is very good for me, taking into account that I haven't been jogging seriously for a year. I did begin three times - but every time something prevented me from keeping up with the plan. In the Summer I had pain in my foot and by the time it healed, I was busy doing other things. Then in January I had a bad cold just when I was already running for 2 weeks. And now in early April I began again only to catch a nasty viral infection of upper respiratory tract.
I'm now almost healed and will continue running. My plan is to keep running 2,5 km for about a week, then increase that to 3,75 and when I can - up that to 5 km, which was my usual track.
I had sore muscles and pain in my left knee yesterday (the muscle fever is worse today), so I'm going to skip jogging today, but I'm going back tomorrow for sure.
