Treadmill  at Gold's- 38:02

First run in 9 days. The last 4+ months have been my worst running phase of my life. Today I signed up for the Seattle Rock n Roll half marathon in June (I will be in Seattle for a conference anyway) so maybe I'll start training again.

Today's run was slow, with 6 x 30 sec. pickups at about 6:00/mile.

Treadmill - 22:56

Only a short time to run today, so I opted for "something is better than nothing." Slow pace again with 2 x 45 sec pickups and 1 x 1:30 pickup.

Started out super slow and  picked it up gradually. Did 3 x 1:00 pickups near the end. Still pretty sick.

Did a pseudo-workout today: 5-4-3-2-1-1 min pickups with 2 min recoveries. Pace was pretty easy so it wasn't that rough.
