not giving up on the comeback

6 @ 7:55 ave pace - thought it was a little faster, but that's ok.  I'm getting my rhythm back.  Had one sharp pain tonight after .8 miles.  Stopped and tightened my shoe and then shorted my stride a bit.  After that it felt normal.  

This one started out ok and crapped out at 3 miles.  Just no endurance anymore.  WIll get it back

Foot ok.  

8 min miles or thereabouts 

Ran for the first time with the local running group. I wanted to go out and do 6 at 8 min pace.  I made the mistake of going with the front group of super fat-less shirtless guys.  I'll never look like those guys, but in the past I would have kept up no problem.   I'm just not there again  - yet.  But it was a good test and I got in some good 3 miles with their group, at 6:45 ish pace.  I decided I didn't want to push things too much and took a detour home.  Ye ole Foot is a little angry with me, but it'll get over it.  

5 @ 7:15 ave pace - got down to low 6's so that's cool.  I think I'll keep going to these Wednesday group runs when I can.  

40 minute bike ride - 

5.6 @ 7:54 ave pace ave pace = first 3 were sub 7:30's - the heat got me and the last 2.6 were crap. 

run at 6 tonight - still pretty hot but at least there was a little shade, which helped a lot.  This one was slow but I wanted to hit 8 miles one way or another.  

8 slow miles
