Woohoo! Finally feeling better and was able to get out for a run. On top of that, I had been expecting to have to drive back to New Mexico right after work, leaving no time for a run, and got a phone call from Lybi at about 9:30 in the morning letting me know she was going to drive home with her mom today, and her mom would take their truck back home. So not only did I get to run, but I also was reunited with my family after having to leave them Christmas afternoon (boo!) I was originally planning on doing 8, but Lybi provided a voice of reason after having taken 3 days off plus having gotten sick, and I settled on 6 miles. I felt really good and hot to trot. On a side note, the 3 days off seems to have helped with both the achilles and the top of my foot. Hooray all around. Back to the run, did 6 miles in 45:31, average pace of 7:35/mile. It all felt good except for the last mile, in the which I felt a little bit tired. Perfect ending to a wonderful day. |
