I went to they gym again this week, and by the end of the week I felt good enough to try a couple of slow miles on the treadmill.  I decided to do the treadmill so I could stop immediately if it started to hurt.  I had a good 2 miles and wanted to keep going, but realized I needed to take it easy and slowly ease back into running so I didn't hurt my foot again.

Monday - 2.14 miles.  I decided to go out and see how my foot would handle running on the roads.  Unfortunately, my foot was the least of my problems.  My heart and lungs were ready to scream and run away from me.  But I know this is how it always begins after taking time off.  It was just delightful to be back running outside again.

Trying to make slow progress and slowly add miles back.

Monday - 5.01 miles with MR.  He's having surgery this week so it was our last run for a while.

Wednesday - 6.82 miles.  I made it to bridge and back- felt great.  It's getting dark so darn early.

Friday - 7.6 miles.  Went to the bridge and wanted to see where they had moved all the soil I'd seen them dumping when Terri and I went walking, so I went to the overpass and saw the work they'd done pushing dirt around and planting grass seeds.  Then I ran home.  It was maybe 40 degrees today so not many people out on the trails.

Tuesday 25th - 4.5 on boardwalk in Ocean City.  Wore my vibrams and felt good.

Thursday 27th - Happy Thanksgiving.  8.05 Ran the virtual Turkey Trot for Cancer treatment and research with  Terri.  It was delightful to be back running with her on our old running path.  Time flew by.  Calves sore from running in vibrams on Tuesday.

Saturday 5.01 miles.  Calves still a little sore.
