It was cool (47) with misty rain today.  I was cool starting off so started faster than normal to get warmed up and then just kept going at that pace and felt good the whole way.  As I getting back my cardio seems to be pretty good so guess the cross training worked just need to get more miles in my legs.

It was raining today so just stayed inside and ran on the TM.  I felt good again today and ran a little faster each mile.  So far so good on the build up of the mileage.  Still trying to take it slow.  This is my 3rd week back to running consistently and just want add a few miles each week until I get back to normal. I am shooting to be back to normal running around the first of the year.  Hope the body holds up with that plan.

A little cool and windy this morning but pretty nice day for running.  I felt a little sluggish this morning getting going but got into a groove after a mile or so. Today was one of those days where it was just getting in the miles.

Nice morning today for a run.  It was low 40's and sunny.  I felt sluggish this morning probably from staying up late and eating way too much on Thanksgiving.  We had family in town so had to get back for the festivities so didn't get to run any longer.  Hopefully, I can add some distance tomorrow.
