Philadelphia, PA:  Traveled to Philly today then ran on the hotel TM before dinner.  It was around 90 outside so didn't want to face the heat.  I felt good and just took it easy.  I still have a little bit of the head cold left.  I will be glad to get over it for good.

Philadelphia, PA:  Had early morning meetings so ended up running before dinner on hotel TM.  I felt good and started off easy then picked it up as I went along.  Ended up running the last couple of miles at MP (whatever that is right now).

Philadelphia, PA:  Had early morning meetings so just got a few miles in on the hotel TM.  I was a little sluggish this morning so just took it easy.

Pretty nice morning today but alittle warmer than it has been.  I felt pretty good today.  Just an easy run but I did add in 4 x 100m strides at the end.  Felt good to stretch the legs out.  Trying to gradually get used to some faster running.  After another couple of weeks of buildup I hope to get back to some workouts.  Garmin battery died on the way back so no time.

Sleep in a little later today.  It was warm (77) and very humid this morning.  Just took it easy and added a little to this run.  Got 3 pretty good weeks in and feel like I am starting to turn the corner on the comeback.  Need to keep building and add some faster stuff.
