2nd day back running. I slept in and planned on running tonight. After dinner and time with the family I took off for a short, slow run. Did a 10 minute first mile. It's been a very long time since I've run that slow. I didn't care because I just wanted to be out running and want to make sure I'm not pushing too soon. So tonight I just took it easy and enjoyed the cool evening. I'm trying to remember that marathoning is all about patience and discipline. You need both to train properly, taper properly, run the race properly, and yes, even to recover properly. I'm working on it day by day. The goal this week is to run 4-5 days easy so I can run 5-6 days next week and be back training full time the the following week.
