Three Wonderful Miles

Back in the saddle again! The superheated Chicago Marathon is in the past, and I not only survived it but finished it. Today’s three-mile run shows that I am recovering from it in a normal way. It felt wonderful, especially in this morning's 48-degree temperature. Time 25:39, average pace 8:33. Splits 8:54, 8:36, and 8:09. Wahoo!

The plantar fasciitis pain is gone. The only pain today is in the right hamstring, a problem which has recurred several times over several years, and for which I don’t yet seem to have a good solution. I hope that cross-training will help. Further, I have no marathon in view at the moment (first time in a LONG time) and can afford to ramp back up to good running condition fairly carefully.
