I decided to skip the treadmill and try the roads this morning. Due to icy roads, cold weather, an extra stiff hip, and the fact that I'm in recovery mode, I ran at a very easy pace (about 11:00/mi) with the two main goals just getting up early and out on the roads again, and getting a little more time and distance on my recovering feet. My feet felt good, but at the end of the 5.5 mile run I could tell my right foot had had enough for today. There was no pain or numbness, just enough of a message to remind me that I should continue to avoid doing too much too soon.
