Another awesome 4 miler

I am starting to really get used to running again faster than ever before. I kinda like it.

1st Outdoor Run since August 2008

This Firefly is back and ready to conquer 2010 as a Running Comeback Year.

Great run day

Even with a sunburn, I still managed to run great with Josh. The shin splints are aweful, but very manageable. The weather was uncomfortable, but doable.

Today's run
3.04 miles

10:31/mile - not too bad especially with shin splits

Oh Treadmill...how I LOVE thee!

....because I know that I am kicking ass on it.

I had another great run on the treadmill today. The runs are getting much easier even as I increase my speed....slowly and gradually. I also added my lower body weight training since I will not be able to get it done tomorrow (working a 14 hour day BEFORE my short vacation!) I am slightly sore - mostly from the weight training - and feel mentally good. I am SO ready to run my favorite lake on Friday - hopefully with Josh - when I go home. I will need it with all of the food we will be probably eat the day before mixed with a little walking.

I have a 5K in mind right now. Just need to sign up. I am SO excited at the possibility of being finally breaking my 5K PR again. I almost have my complete mojo back.
