Nice easy miles to work back into things.  I am finally feeling better and after being out of town at the end of last week, ready to get back on track.

No workouts yet, but I ran all the hills around my home and never ran on a flat surface, just up and down.  Actually felt pretty good, just some twinges in my hip.

Nice morning, still in shorts and Tshirt!   Felt great until the last mile and my hip started hurting.

I had a really difficult time getting up this morning and finally got out at the last minute possible.   Nice and chilly and I overdressed -- yesterday was 68 when I headed out and today was 42.    It is nice to run in the light and when I am actually awake.

Nice Monday morning miles.  I am having a hard time trying to figure out what to wear - I either over dress or underdress.   I also finally went and got new shoes - only has taken 6 months.   I am trying out the Brooks Ghost.

 Yoga when I got home

Very warm morning and I can tell my running has been bad.  I was sick most of last week and traveling with early flights the last two days, so today is time to get serious again.

I slept in which was wonderful and head out around 7:15.   When I left it was 55 degrees and winds of 17 mph.  When I finished it was 43 degrees, winds of 21 mph and a "feels like" temp of 32.  OUCH!  I dressed for 55 and was okay most the time but when I was running into the wind it was a little cold.

 My garmin was dead so the entire run was by feel and I have no sense of pace so I will not even try to guess my pace.  I estimated mileage based on what I thought it would be and I was close - but not close enough for 7.   

Today felt better than yesterday but that could be because I was slower - don't know.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Today I went and met with the running group at Fort Worth Running Co.  I have debated going and running with them because if you want to join, it costs money, but I am tired of running on my own and I am missing the camaradie of a group.     I went with the 9 min pace group and it felt a little slow but was the right group for where I am at currently.   They are training for the marathon in February and are very good at keeping people where they need to be pace wise, which was good for me because I would have pushed more than I should have and it was nice to feel good when I was done.

Happy Running!

Nice humid morning at 62 degrees.  35 degree increase from Saturday.   I felt really good until the last mile and it was rough - my breathing was off and I seemed unusually tired.  I am traveling the rest of the week with crazy flights so expectations are low.
