Notes

What an amazing day for a run!! The sun is shining, it's chilly but not so cold. Ed & Chris came out to the house today & we did a paved loop so the roads would be mostly ice/slush free. Just a couple hills to contend with & they weren't so bad. We said in the beginning we were going to take it slow, but our pace was surprising! I think my slowest mile was an 8:45 and that was the first mile. Miles 6.5-7.5 were a bit windy and a little tougher. I fell behind Ed & Chris for the last 1.5 miles, but my pace was still good. The downhill momentum was certainly the reason for that. My lower leg felt great today, no pain or tightness at all during or after. After the run, I did some stretching, push ups, planks, and some other core/ab work. Dan gave me teeter table 101 today & I spent a little time on that. It was better than the first time I tried it a year or so ago when we first got it. It is going to take some getting used to, It felt good on everything but my low back. Can't wait to get to the point where I can use it for ab work. Overall, a great run, a great day!
