2.87 miles - 47:50 minutes - 16.5 min/mile
I decided to use the 13.1 Half Marathon app to do my long run today, even though it wasn't really very long, so I could listen to Jeff Galloway tell me when to walk and when to run and I wouldn't have to wear my watch.
There was a Magic Mile in today's run, which ended up being 16:42 minutes—slower than my average pace for the run—because it was an uphill mile. But only a little slower. It was a pretty good run. Another day when there was no one at the park when I got there, and only a few cars in the parking lot when I finished. I had the whole trail to myself, except for the bunnies! Just after dawn is the time when all the rabbits come out. There were little cottontails hopping along all over the place.
So, four weeks in and I'm still going strong. Still getting up at 5:30 - 6:00 AM to go out and run three times a week, feeling good and enjoying myself. Sometimes I take a little nap later in the morning to make up for the lost hours of sleep, but sometimes I don't feel like I need it. I have more energy in general and feel a lot stronger. I'm really glad I am finally able to run again.
