Bike Friday, 3.1ish outside with the jogger Sat. Sun was 3.1@2@8, 6.2 in 25 min on bike, then 3.1@2, 1!8, 1@7:30, 1@7, .1@6:30. Legs were just not in it either Sat or Sun. Going to blame the heat/humidity from the race on Thurs. Today was bike.

Congrats on finishing your race safely @dreamfinder.
Six of one, half a dozen of the other - they both stink.
I planned to do 6 on my TM on Sunday morning but the TM didn't sound quite right. I made it to 5.28 miles and then I decided I'd better stop before I permanently damage it because it was getting worse. It's 10 years 8 months old with thousands of miles on it, but the motor is still running strong. I'd rather not turn what I think is a small repair needed into a larger repair. Pretty sure there's a loose connection at the power cord, plus the belt is starting to ripple. After all that time, I am grateful that I've never had any problems with it or needed any service. But I'm still bummed that it's out of commission in this heat until I can get someone to the house to repair it. Hopefully within a week or two. Guess I'll be getting up super early to run til then.

Longest run since July 11…5.5M at 9:43. No knee pain though I did run gingerly. Feeling so upbeat!
Ugh!!! But better the TM than you!

True!
Got up early today to run outside in the heat and humidity. Tried to run through every sprinkler I passed! 4 miles.

Still on only walking so I did 2.6 miles on the treadmill. I've been given the OK to try running on Thursday . A part of me is revving to go, and a part of me is scared to take that first faster step - so hopefully a slow and easy run will help me build up my confidence that all is healed.

Thanks. I think it's really me not getting nearly enough sleep, and not stretching nearly as much to loosen stuff up. Not just pre/post run, but throughout the day. I've never been flexible, (don't think I could touch my toes since I was like 5) so it takes a lot for me work on my range of motion.
Just make sure not to push it. Nothing wrong with a nice easy shake out the cobwebs jog pace for a while.

I ran! Thanks @dreamfinder - I did take it slow. I did a five minute walking warm up and cool down, and in between did three repetitions of 3 minutes of running followed by 2 minutes walking, so the whole workout was 25 minutes on the treadmill (2.5 km). I see my osteo tomorrow evening so he can evaluate if my hip is up to me doing more this weekend. I felt ok running in terms of my hip but boy was I panting! Haven't been breathless like that since I first started running seriously 4-5 months ago . Thanks everyone for all your support - you are all a fantastic virtual support group!
