5 miles in 52:25 Not a bad run but the weather was brutal. Very hot and well it slowed me down quite a bit. Overall a good run and a nice 2 day total of 8.5. Hopefully this will kick me into gear into a more consistent pattern.
Back at it
It has been way way too long since I’ve run. Ok, well I have run sporadically over the winter and really the past year but I’ve come to the conclusion that I NEED to do this once again. I have to get back into shape. I need to run. I need to swim. I need [...]

3 runs to get back into it
I ran 4 times this week and this was my final run. It was a good run. I felt strong the whole way. I’m hoping the pattern and habit is coming back.

Sunday Awesome Run
I started out well, but after a half-mile it felt like my legs were weighted down with concrete blocks but I fought the need to stop and kept running. I slowed after mile 3 but kept going and finished well. My first nonstop 5 mile run in a very long time.

Wake Up Call
Woke up at 4:30 am and headed out the door. I felt great running before work. It was a good run. My legs were feeling the distance from the weekend but I ran solid and besides stopping to tie my shoe ran the whole way at a very steady pace.

A week or so off and decided to go out for 5 miles. It hurt but I ran virtually the whole way and felt pretty darn good.
