It's been almost a year, and I am ready to come back out of "retirement"...but slowly. A couple factors motivated my return - Sarah wanting to run NY together, Clyde's fantastic SLC marathon, and reminiscing about the Boston Marathon last year.
Sarah, Clyde and I ran five miles just under 8 min/mile. I liked it. Great conversation. My plan is to run twice a week for about 2 months, then slowly up the schedule to 6 days per week. Shooting for a PR in next year's StG Marathon. |

| Sarah had an 18 mile run planned this morning so I planned on running the first nine with her as her "bodyguard" in the dark. We ran 8 min/mile for 6 miles and then she wanted to take it up a notch. Yeah, right, I was struggling, so I convinced her to go ahead and I shifted down to Ironman pace (which is almost walking) and jogged the last three miles home. I think she is going to PR at her marathon in a few weeks. As for me, I am going to slowly build back what I've lost. No rush, it's all good.

Nice ez run. We went slow - min/mile splits were 10,8:09,8:23, 7:58, 11.
Good conversation - Zac, Hughes, Tom, James, Mike, and I . Trying to be patient with my times, I have a year and a half to get ready.

| Did my favorite workout - running to the gym, lifting weights then running home. Slow. |
