Yay training! I went on a gentle run which was one of my staple runs before my injury. Last spring, this run was the very least I would do on a training day; it was what I ran when I didn't have enough time to go on a longer run. Today, it was difficult. Even running at an easy pace demanded so much of my depleted fitness. This run is sufficiently common in my training that it will make a good benchmark for my progress.

It would seem I am now training again. My right leg was tight, particularly at the hip, but my body felt strong enough to run. I would not sprint or do plyometrics, but I am strong enough to do easy running. I mean to run 10-15 mile weeks for a short time until my body adjusts to this new stress. While it was frustrating to have so much difficulty given the comparative ease with which I ran in the spring, I am delighted to be active again. On 28 April, I ran 4:28/km pace with 168 ahr.
