Yeah!!  I haven't ran over 4ish since November 1st or something.  I felt good most of the way, except for a slight side ache that had me walking for a few steps.  After that I just controlled my breathing a bit better and kept on. 

Good run and good weather and I was back home in under an hour.  (Not bad for me).

Happy to be out there and there is no better way to start the day, or week, then with a run.

2 miles of walking with 200 lunges, again.  After yesterdays run I feel like they are definately helping.

Up early to get a run in.  Same 4, again.  Felt good and enjoyed being out there.  

It was a bit warmer with the overcast skies.

2 miles of walking with lunges.  It was chilly today, but I survived.  That is one good thing about lunges, you warm up quickly.

The same 7 as last time.  After sleeping half the day yesterday, I figured I could use a better run than just 3 miles.  Not that 7 is a whole heck of alot more.  Took it slow, again after a very lazy day, that is all I had in me.  Feeling good and stronger.

3 miles of walking with 200 lunges.  I thought about increasing the lunges today, but did not.  It was freezing out there, but felt good getting out and doing something.
