Good pace. Calves are sore which scared me. Then I remembered I did calf raises yesterday while weight training. It's all good.
Notice the every other day running pattern. I am not about to dive in and get hurt.

Being injured is no good! You're running smart.

Thanks Matt. I think I have had my fill of being injured in 2012. I am not about to go out in 2012 with another injury. This year it's been lower leg issues. Not to fun. I am going to be smart!

That day of recovery between really helps. 6 miles is good but don't over do it :-)

No diving - most pools are starting to close and the roads are hard! :-)
Knowing that you have Boston in the future should help you keep the training under control for now... build up slowly so you get strong and can have some great running during the winter/spring leading up to it!

Ha! :)
I'm doing what I did in 2010. Strong aerobic build up all winter. Yes even on elliptical hell. I hurt my feet that winter, and still built up stamina via the HELLiptical. That only went on for a few weeks, but it bugged off and on. Then early spring, I got my speedwork on and took off after that. No injuries at all. PR's all year.
I'm going back there. I'll be careful

That's a great, sensible plan Lily. You'll definitely get the results you want by approaching it this way.
