Longest run ever since injury and back home in Aus! 8:10 avg pace.

Ran outside in the glorious sunshine. About 70 degrees, light breeze, bitchumen/dirt road barely any traffic, surrounded by forrest near my parents place in country Victoria; about 35 miles north of Melbourne.

I guess with the time change, I lost a day, so took 1.5 rest days or so. Legs felt so rested that I could've gone a lot faster/longer, but held back.

Its GREAT to be home!

50 mins easy elliptical

Leg strength. 3 x

Back squats x 20; front lunges x 15; single-leg deadlifts; single-leg squats; side-step ups.

All with dumbbells in kilograms, and I have no idea how to use the metric system anymore. At least I got it done before it got really hot; its going to be about 105 degrees today! (and yes, I had to google what celcius was in F!)

Easy miles, 8:12 avg pace, still a bit huffy from the elevation but Im struggling to slow down - my legs really want to run! Also quite warm - 80 degrees or so when I went out.

First back-to-back runs since injury! Very nerve-wracking, but it was the first time I was feeling zero discomfort the day after a run, so decided its probably fine. Very easy, 8:30 avg pace.
