AM: 14 miles on the Clearwater bridges with Anthony.  Longest run in about 6 weeks by about 5 or 6 miles.  Shocked I completed it.  I felt out of shape to say the least.

No running.  Recovery day.

AM: six 800s at sub 6 pace, just simply staying in form and having a high cadence.  I am still not fit enough to go fast and keep any semblance of form.

So, Sunday was the first day I felt "okay."  I'm still getting some phantom pains, cramps, and various annoyances, but I think I can finally start actually training.  I am still hanging on to the "off days" until I build up my mileage a bit, but that's okay.  This has been a long haul from a pretty serious injury- I want to get it right.

PM: 9.5 miles solo at 7:30 pace.  Finally feeling like my old self, just without the endurance and speed.  So I guess not like my old self.  At least running is fun again, and that's all that matters.

PM: 3 fast miles at the gym on the treadmill working on form.

I also unceremoniously cracked 3,000 miles today.  Being out of shape kind of steals the fun of milestones that are based off... well... being in shape.  It feels similar to hitting a home run accidentally with your eyes closed.
