I am finally done with my anatomy class and now I am ready for some training. Got up this morning and ran 6 nice and easy. Felt good to get back out running.

Second day in a row.  Didn't want to go too much too fast so only did 3 miles.  Felt great.

Still going strong and getting more excited each day. I need to look for a good race that I can do. I do have Las Vegas Ragnar in October, but I need a race. Something to satisfy my craving for a short spell.

I figure since I didn't get signed up for HCH this year and my wife is running it instead, I would run my half in the mountains.  What a tough run since I hadn't ran that far in a while. It still felt good.
