I thought this would be closer to 7 miles, but I won't overestimate because I think my addition to the route wasn't as long as I planned. 50 minutes of running, in any case. Lions Park to Evergreen Park loop, with a little extra loop. I tried to go out pretty slow and stuck to that for awhile, but my pace steadily picked up until mile 5 or so. Kind of hit a little wall, probably because it was warmer than I'm used to (80, I'm a wimp) and in the evening, when I don't usually run (and needed a little more fuel). But other than calming back the pace because I felt winded the run was fine, and I think I'll make Wed. my evening run of the week on a regular basis. Very little soreness in my legs, that's been nice to not worry about like I had been earlier this month. Fitness is suffering from those two weeks off, but I'll work that back up.
