hang in there...you've increased the mileage so fatigue here and there is understandable. Make sure to get good sleep. You've had a solid month of running.

Thanks. This weather is pinning me down. I really miss the bike trails.

By the way, progression runs in my experience give the most bang for the buck if you don't overdo it. Ok tp be a little tired as long as you recover in a day or two.
