Personal:

Started running in November 2007 to get fit. Now I'm back almost to square one after back surgery. I did it once and I'll do it again.

"In truth, runners don't race other runners. They race against themselves: to conquer their wills, to transcend their weaknesses, to beat back their nightmares. And while a runner can't actually beat himself, he can beat his time. Even years into running, he can get better."  Running for His Life by Michael Hall.

930PM: Only one run for today so I had to go a bit longer than usual on the TM.  I've been working some long hours trying to finish a 9th Circuit Brief due on Thursday.  I felt really strong aerobically and my legs eventually loosened up toward the end.

1PM: Snuck in a quick workout on the TM before some family duties.  Felt really good, like I could have gone forever.

A really good run this evening.  First 5M with Martin who really pushed me.  I was able to hold current marathon pace pretty easily.  Legs felt powerful. w/ a lot of spring.  Never really got tired but I started to get cold once the sun went down so I headed for home.
