I am noticing that it’s starting to get a shade lighter in the morning. No wait, I just started later than usual today. 
I felt pretty good, first mile the fastest at 8:55, then 9:33, then 9:47. But the key is my hip flexor pain wasn’t as bad. My plan is to run 7 on Saturday, then next Monday and Wednesday, run 3 each day. Then next Saturday, up the long run to 8, building up one mile each week till I get to 13. Then I will just do alternating long runs every Saturday of 10 and 6, all the way up until the mini. Here’s to strategic planning!
Garmin numbers for today:
| Total Time (h:m:s) | 0:28:24 | 9:30 pace |
|---|---|---|
| Distance (mi ) | 2.99 | |
| Moving Speed (mph) | 6.3 avg. | 8.8 max. |
| Elevation Gain (ft) | +213 / -211 | |
| Temperature (F) | 42.8 F avg. | 42.8 F high |
