Easy 4 miles before work - fairgrounds loop - 35:54.  

Easy 10 miles PM - out and back out Carr Hill in the rain.  Nice and peaceful.  Started feeling pretty sluggish but worked out the kinks.   

Really struggling internally with starting up legit training again.  Its tougher starting in such poor fitness.

Series race start and finish from Lincoln Park.  Ran over to park from house.  put in a hard effort to hang in around 6:10-6:15.  Still getting back to reasonable fitness levels to expect anything beyond that pace.  

Ran back home the long way.  Avengers End Game in the PM
