52F, 7:57 AP. A run, after 11 days off. Salvage plan is to build up easy runs this week, get used to running again, fast finish LR on Sunday (a week from now), then MP tempo ten days out. I won't PR, but I will still enjoy the race. Going back to a normal routine on Monday will help a lot.

62F, 7:38 AP. Felt better than yesterday, still sucking a lot of air but it's probably good for me. Quads were actually a little sore from the 6-miler yesterday...it's been that long I guess. No time to ease into it now though!

My wussy legs needed some recovery so that's what I did today.

73F, 85%. 7:36 AP. I'd call it mid-June morning temps...crazy. Fortunately it should cool off a bit by this weekend.

68F, N 20-29 mph. 7:24 AP. Ran as the cold front relief was arriving. Tough start, but rode the tailwind back to the car for the last 6, mostly 7:00-7:15 pace, and finished with a 6:24. Felt good - I don't think I'm quite back to normal, but a fast finish LR on Sunday should give me an idea.
