Notes

I am so blessed. Three weeks ago I thought it would be months before I got back into this kind of shape. I am so fortunate to run like this. millions of people never get to the level that I am at now. Of course I suppose millions of people have no desire to either... I'm just so gifted to be able to run and run half decently. I don't take it for granted. 1 in 5:43 then I slowed down, aiming 5:55-6:10 of course I wanted to go sub 6, 2 in 11:43, 4.2 in 25:30, 5.2 in 31:09, 7.7 in 46:28 and the last two miles were going exactly the speed of the wind and slightly down hill probably 50 ft in 2 miles which equals a very nice last two miles. I am very very happy with this run. It's still just a comeback run and the 12 mile tempo I had a month ago was actually slightly easier because there was less wind and I was in better shape. however the home stretch today was in daylight and the difference between light and dark is a few seconds per mile. Anyway, I'm pleased and excited to see what happens in the future.
