Overall Average Pace: 9:44

Conditions:

Thoughts:

  • I am happy with my Asics shoes! They are cushioning my heel well. I noticed that I was rolling my right heel slightly to outward to alievate some pain. I need to pay attention to that movement so I don't create an injury to the other side of my heel.
  • This is my fourth run in four weeks. Today I noticed my loss of fitness. Hopefully with my continual healing and spinning, the fitness will not take too long to gain back!
  • I have a half-marathon mid-June. It may become a training run as I heal. A week ago, I considered giving my registration to someone else so there is progress!

Cross Training:

  • 45 minutes spinning

Congrats on the run. Take the long view; healing well now will pay dividends for years to come. You have a very good fitness base, so despite the layoff, you'll get back to your previous fitness level relatively quickly.
