AM - 3.75 miles on the trail with Dan early before church - good to catch-up with him. Jet lag resulted in some poor sleep last night - I was awake from about 1 am to 4 am.

AM - 4.25 miles with Dan at Milton HS. Legs felt very heavy and I had low energy today despite having a full/normal night's sleep. Suspect that my body is still acclimating to the jet lag and recovery from the marathon. I may consider taking a day off or running more at a jog a couple of times this week just to allow for things to settle back to my normal.

AM - just under 4.5 miles with Dan from his house, out to the horsefarm trail roads. Intentionally started slower which was better to warm into the run. Cooler this morning and needed a shirt - felt nice.

AM - considered taking a day-off - but decided since I was up, I may as well enjoy the cooler pre-fall morning on the trail. Very easy jog for 3 miles - very low heart rate effort. This was nice. May do this again every few days until I am fully back to normal following the marathon and the jet lag.

AM - 4.25 miles on the Milton Trail with Dan. Ran at faster pace than it felt - so I must be recovering back to almost normal.

AM - 4.5 miles with Dan on the WC Golf Course - I always forget how hilly that route is. Legs were heavy today for some reason.
