after the break

After a month off I have taken my first steps...

Mon- 25 minutes (3.3)

Surprised myself with 7:40s even if it did take some effort

Tues- 27 minutes (3.3)

8:10s...knew yesterday was too good to be true

Wed-off

Thurs

am- 26 minutes (3.3)

Trying to keep it under 8s

pm- 52 minutes (6.5)

Out of the blue Ike calls and says "do you want to do an easy 5?" Its Ike and we have not run together in close to 15 years so I can't say no. I say how easy? He says hes been running around 7:30s, but he could do 8s, so I said sure. He shows up and says he wants to run blackdog and I inform him that the loop is closer to 7 than 5. His response is we'll go slow. Well I was feeling alright until about 4 and then struggled through the last few miles. All in all it made for a solid day and certainly helped the week.

Fri- off

Sat- off (still paying for Thursday)
