Use it or Lose it

Evening run with Evy, 3 mile loop to City Creek gate and back. 

Good run this morning to and from the capital building turnaround.  Was able to pick up the downhill pace better without feeling the sciatica pain, and ran at a good tempo pace for part of the run.  Benchmark time 48:49 (21:40 downhill to turnaround, 28:09 uphill coming home). Ran against a pretty stiff wind the last 1/2 mile. 

Feeling small twinges of sciatica pain in glute while not running.  It is not severe, but I'm just aware of it being present.

Ran a little past the 1 mile marker in City Creek then back home.  Kept an easy pace.  Finished up at 11:30 -  it was getting pretty warm out by then, but it is probably good for be to acclimate to the warmer weather!   I've been very busy this week with a sick kid.  It is now Saturday morning, and I'm finally posting Friday's run!  Now I need to get some chores done around the house, then head out (or stay in) for today's run.

Had a busy day and didn't get out for a run until 5 this afternoon.  Went about a mile up city creek. Most of the run went pretty well, but it was pretty hot (90's), and and I kind of ran out of steam on the return route along 12th avenue towards home.  I figured it was a good day to just go slow and try to aclimate to the warmer conditions.
