First run since post injection. So I want to apologize to Matt Poulsen because he told me to only go 2-3 miles today which was the original plan. But after 3 miles I decided to do 4 and then 5 until I reached 60 minutes. Felt really good! First run since the STG marathon that I have felt no pain whatsoever. So Matt sorry and thank you!!

Glad to get out today though with Bret, Bryant and Jon. Fun to run with guys again. Plan this week is to take every run super easy then next start incorporating some fast miles until January then hit the track hard from there til Boston.

Avg pace today was roughly 7:10 min/miles

Good to get out for another run today. Pace was slow and easy, towards the end of the run I was really feeling fatigued due to the fact that this was my first back-to-back run in a long time.

65 minutes @ avg/pace 7:35 min/miles

Got out today before heading to work. With the new baby in our house I think I have been averaging 3 to 4 hours a sleep for the last 12 days. So for me right now to get up at six in the morn just isn't happening. Left the house around noon did a solid loop through north Ogden an pleasant view. Good mix of uphills and rollers.

Avg pace was 7:05 min miles. Legs feel tired but are definitely coming around.

On the side note I have dropped 5 pounds in the last 3 days, good to be running again!

Met up in North Ogden in Riley for an easy run. Climbed up to the Canal Rd and did some single track trail for a bit then ended the run back on the road. Good run for me pace was right where I needed it to be. Thanks again to Riley for coming up North for a good morning.

Avg pace 7:24 min/miles

60 minute run on the TM. Through 2 miles in @ 6 min pace and 5:56. Wanted to go longer but not going to lie I started to feel the ITB a little bit. So definitely need to watch things and listen to the body.

Good run for me and good to get back into things.

Avg pace today 6:55 min/miles
