85 degrees and incredibly humid. Taking things very easy. I suspect I'm running between 8 and 8:15, but I'm keeping the watch put away for now and running off feel while I try to get my base back. My long term plan, if my foot allows it, is to get back to 70 mpw. My plan to achieve this is to begin with 35 mpw and hold that for 2 weeks and then begin to add 5 miles to my weekly mileage, hold for 2 weeks, repeat.

Welcome back! Good news on the bone scan. Glad to hear you're cleared to run again. I think your plan sounds like a good, safe one.
