Only my 2nd run since the Grandma's Marathon (June 18th), and I really wanted to take it nice and easy. Ave. 8:00 min/mile on treadmil to ensure flat and soft surfaces. Then, did a little bit of crosstraining and lifting. After a full week off of doing nothing, I need to hit the core stuff again

Another easy run today. It was a perfect day to run, sunny and around 77 degrees.  Again I wanted to take it pretty easy today - Ave 7:22 min/mile.  Worked on core.

Another easy run for me since I'm still in recovery mode from my recent marathon. I plan on taking it easy for the next two weeks, then hit some harder workouts.  Pace was right around 7:17 min/mile

Another easy run in 90 degree weather, felt ok though since I have been running shorter and slower runs for recovery. Ran 6 today around 1:00 with an ave pace of 7:17 min/mile.
