Had a killer headache yesterday so I slept in a little longer than I wanted to this morning.  I wanted to run at least an hour but do to the medication the night before I just didn't get motivated enough to get ready.  (28 degrees)

 Although,  I ran 7.53 miles in a 7:14 pace in 54 minutes.  I ran up East Alameda Rd.  down Jefferson Rd.  and over to Garrett Way.  Did the last two miles at a 6:57 pace. 

I really haven't tried to bust out a faster tempo run lately because the body just doesn't feel like it anymore.   When you have a serious accident I think the soreness tends to stay with you even though you think your totally healed.

 My  goal would be to do about 4 miles at a 5:55 threshold pace and back off with two at 6:20.  I'm just not there yet.  

Even though I don't have a planned race this year, consistent running is more important and I consider that my racing.  It's always good to try and have a goal while your running for fitness just for something to achieve and make your fitness fun and agonizing.

I think that is a good perspective Kory - keep running consistently, and make that the "goal" for now. That in and of itself can be a challenge. When a race sparks your interest, then you can shift the focus to that, and already have a good base of training.

Hey at least the goals are getting put out there. You need something to shoot for and coming back to where you were is going to take time. So far though amazing!

Jake K - I think the base is coming. I know the anaerobic is something that I will have to work towards when I feel the body is right. Although I really would like to try and do some faster miles now.

Adam - Your right I'm grateful for what God has allowed. You can't look at the past but what God has for you in the future.

This week I've been going off of the saying. When He closes a door, He opens a window...
