Today was my first 6 mile run in a long, long time. The last time I ran 6 miles was the 2008 Soldier Field 10 Mile. It was after that race that the wheels began to fall off. After yesterday's snow and ice I decided to head to the gym.
I felt good body wise, though I could tell I was not where I would normally be. I have to give myself a break though. I have not gone to 6 miles in about a year, so my body is not used to it. It will be.
I am running 6 miles three days a week for the next few weeks. The pace, as always with a new week of miles starts slow. My pace was 11:58/mile. So the goal is to lessen in as the time goes on.
A good run today...better runs ahead.
