First back to back running days in a while: done and done!

Dear James, Daniel and Emily

I resumed my long Sunday run schedule this weekend. Did a 5 mile run, walked some of the up hill parts, but overall probably ran about 90% of the time. That was the longest & most challenging run I have done since the half. Plus it was coming after my first full week (3 runs). But it went well. It was also my first listening to an audio book, not just a podcast. And it felt good, very refreshing to go that far without any extra soreness!

So today I went for my Monday run, took my easiest 3 mile route. And while I did walk some as a concession to the back to back day, I was running an easy 80% of the route. And again, no extra soreness. So it appears I am right on track for my resuming more serious running training in a couple of weeks, after my birthday.
