First day back! It was glorious to be back out running, I felt kind of tired definitely, but good to be back. The leg hasn't bothered me at all and I got a decent pace in as well.

7:45   7:14   7:32 + .36 @ 2:29 = 7:27 AP

I have started to run as a forefoot striker now as well. Hopefully that will help with some little injuries. Can't wait for tomorrow!

Today's run was good. Slower than yesterday, although th:e last .25 or so I did quite a bit faster and ended up getting down to a 4:00 min/mile pace, just a sprint to the finish line. Probably shouldn't have done it because I can kind of feel my shin splint, so I may take another day or two off.

8:14   7:56 and .5 in 3:08 = 7:47 AP

Trying to get back out and get a little running done, but my leg isn't fully healed yet. Little by little...

Today's run was pretty good. Did a warm up and then ran two miles and did it pretty fast. I think I ended up running just over a 13:00 two mile. Then cooled down and did another slow 800m just to cool down. It felt good and I didn't feel much from my leg, so hopefully it was good for me.
