Today I ran my second speed training workout since resuming real training with my new shoes, and it felt good. I won't lie and say I was hyped up and rarin' to go first thing. It took a little while to get moving, but once I got moving it felt great.
I just finished the whole week's workouts and felt real good yesterday. Finished 3.5 miles in 35 minutes, keeping to my normal ~10 minute mile pace. So that was 16.5 miles last week running, plus cool down walks at the end of the run. Which was the best week I have had in almost 2 months!
Now I just need to continue focusing on getting my appetite under control and I should see myself getting back to top condition in a decent amount of time. My goal is to be back to 5-6 mile runs by the end of the year, which would be a comfortable number to stay at until it is time to get serious about the marathon training. And at this point I feel comfortable that I can meet that goal.
