I feel amazing.

practised 24kg kettlebell swing for 12mins, with jogging for recovery.

then went for a 15-20min run in the countryside.
My run was graceful, calming and hard - yet seemed effortless and enjoyble. It finished with a really fast ~0.5km downhill on wet grass.
But best of all, I ran PAIN FREE! No shin splints, no apprehension, no tightness - just awesomeness. That was real running, if only for a short period.

All my efforts the last year have finally collaborated and paid off.
