Took the prescribed two days of rest -- away from running but not really resting from all the other tasks of life -- and came back to trudge through 12 miles today. The pace was horrible and I had to stop a few times but 12 miles is a far distance for me so that is okay.

Tomorrow is a shorter distance.

Had planned to go 5 miles but I was feeling the affects of Thur/Fri stomach illness so cut it short.
