I finally got out for my first run since my 50 today.  I wore the HR monitor and kept the HR under 140.  It was really slow but I got in 8 miles.  Legs felt pretty good but not perfect.  I always think they are 100% recovered from a race until I actually go out and run.

When I built my new office I Putin a shower so I could run to work. I hadn't had a chance to use it because they had to fix a few tiles that were cracked, but it is fixed so I decided to run to work. I made my way there via a long loop through the desert first. 17 miles later I was at work. I showered up, had a quick snack and got to work after throwing my running clothes in the wash. I also put in a washer and dryer so I could wear the clothes on the way home and they would be clean. After finishing up with my last patient I changed back into my now clean and dry running clothes and ran home. It was raining and windy but it was fun. I took the most direct route home. It was just over 3 miles. 3.1 to be exact, a 5k!

I needed a nice little recovery run this morning after yesterday's double so I strapped on the HR monitor and ran 8 trail miles keeping the HR under 140.
