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.
Tuesday night's dinner: Wild caught salmon with pistachios and organic nonfat yogurt, organic peas (two kinds), pineapple.  Estimated Weight Watcher points = 9.
