Getting back into it...

Between one thing and another, I haven't done but two 19 milers since Boston. NYC is approaching fast, so I ran distance today. The pace was slow--about 8:45/mile, but it had been a while and I was more interested in whether or not I could even run that far anymore.

It was quite cool and cloudy this morning and I thought it would stay that way so I decided to run after breakfast rather than before. Right after eating, the sky cleared and it became a beautiful day. A little on the warm side for distance running but not excessively so.

Update: Ran a 5.2 miler today at a pace of 7:37. I had felt achy ever since yesterday's run, so it is nice to see that my body can bounce-back quickly.
