| AM - 4 miles easy from my new home in ATL this morning. Actually felt like I had less discomfort and more strength in the left hip flexor today. Relatively cooler temps (~10 degrees) and less humidity (~10% less) - made for pleasant running conditions as compared to FL.

| AM - very early run of about 3.5 miles ahead of a business trip to Chicago. Hopeful for more miles later, but unlikely.

| AM - 6 miles this morning in Chicago suburbs. Rained all day yesterday and overnight, and I was prepared for a wet run, but as luck would have it, the rain ended just as I headed out. Very nice little run.

| AM - got closer to 5 miles in this morning as a much faster pace. Made a friend. Guy was running in the neighborhood up ahead of me and waved as he turned the corner. We were going the same way and after a couple of turns he stopped and said, "looks like we are running about the same pace, do you want to run together?"
So although I felt woefully out of shape, I agreed as long as he took it easy on me, and we proceeded to run about 2 miles together before I headed back home. Felt good to have a run with someone for a change. He was kind enough to invite me for a run with a group tomorrow morning.

| AM - met my new running friend, Dan and he took me for run in the local area. Told him I was a bit gimpy of late and wouldn't want to push too hard. He was running with his black lab, Lucy which I figured would mean we wouldn't be going hard, and perhaps need to stop here and there. I was wrong. Dan proceeded to set out a brisk (at least for me right now) 6:46 pace for the first two miles, and then we settled into 7:13 pace on some not-insignificant hills through mile 5 until I just had to wave the white flag and say, I cannot carry-on a conversation on this uphill and run at this pace. He relented and though on the uphils we took it easy, we still were running sub 7:30's where it was relatively flat. The dog was amazing, I must say. Never once getting in the way or crossing over or around us, and simply ran as fast or as slow as we did without even so much as a bark or heavy panting. Anyway, I was actually quite pleased with this effort as I had no pain and maintained a decent pace for much of the route - 10 miles is the longest I have run in many weeks.
