A new day a new pain...nothing serious though.

It was tough to drag my behind out of bed this morning. I normally enjoy my morning runs but our youngest decided to stay up late again so when the alarm went off at 5:30 AM which was already later than I wanted to get up, I turned it off and laid in bed for ten more minutes. I did finally drag myself out of bed and downstairs to get dressed and eat a little cereal. When I began my warm up my left heal was experiencing some pain. I am not sure what the deal was with that but it went away about halfway through mile one, I am going to keep an eye on it though. Mile one was a fast one and I was worried about my overall time but I kept ticking off the seconds with each additional mile in fact mile one was the only mile I ran over an eight minute/mile pace. I know that I keep harping on this but my last mile was my fastest yet again which is a huge accomplishment for me. After my run today I was looking at my runs before the injury and the ones with negative splits were few and far between and that is being generous. Tomorrow will be a cross training day for me and then I'm going to run Wednesday and Thursday with my long run scheduled for Saturday.

4 miles in 31:24
