good 9 mile street run 9 mi 01:28 09:48 pace
Tough run to make. Finished out walking but still pulled a sub 10 pace. I'll take it.

great TM 5 miles 1 degree incline 5 mi 00:45 09:05 pace
5 miles Treadmill set at 1 degree incline. Almost under 9 minute pace. No question now that previous low back problems have led to years of leg weakness. Fewest miles since college days before hitt... read more

great Neighborhood loop with Polly ... 4.25 mi 00:39 09:15 pace
Another strong run. But now comes the hard part of getting through the initial muscle aches. Maybe a 5 miler tomorrow.

Don't push too hard. Looks like your over the hump. Tthe rest will come easier whether sooner or later.

great Neighborhood loop with Polly ... 3 mi 00:25 08:26 pace
The only thing I can figure for the very unexpected sub 8:30 pace other than being a short 3 mile run is that the previous disk problem now repaired and healed was causing a lot of leg weakness pri... read more

great Neighborhood loop with Polly 3 mi 00:29 09:49 pace
A little unexpected speed this early on. Second run on the streets. 3 mile loop. Didn't check my running watch for pace as it felt slow and easy. Coming in at 9:49 per mile was a pleasant surprise.

great Polly run 2.30 m. Neighborhoo... 2.3 mi 00:26 11:13 pace
First asphalt run since August. That's 5 runs in 6 days without pain. Officially calling the back injury and surgery healed 13 weeks ahead of schedule. Slow, easy, and light with tons of core stren... read more

great TM 3 degrees - 3 mile 3 mi 00:34 11:29 pace
Just going to speculate that maybe this corner is turned. Day 4, faster pace, strong incline, no pain.

RUN
great TM 3 3 degrees 3 miles 3 mi 00:38 12:49 pace
Pain from yesterdays 3 mile walk/run dissipated so quickly, decided to go again. 3 miles on 3 degrees at a nice easy 12:50 pace felt good. Maybe tomorrow again? Can only hope.

Thanks David. Feels weird to be proud of a 3 mile run at this pace but it's good to be able to do it at all.

great TM 2.5 Mile 4 degree incline 2.5 mi 00:38 15:19 pace
Set the TM at 4 degrees and 4.2 MPH. Managed to get HR up to 140 without overworking the back. Nonetheless, it's still telling me to take it slow and easy. Take a few more days off and try again. D... read more

great 1 mile slow 1 mi 00:11:15 11:15 pace
First run albeit short without pain. 1 mile slow yesterday. No after effect today. Maybe this is it. Won't run today but will do another slow 1 mile tomorrow and see what happens. Easy does it.

tired Neighborhood walk/job 2 mi 00:26 13:05 pace
8 quarters, jog 1, walk 1. First run back. No pain, just very tired considering the weeks off following back surgery. But still nearly many weeks ahead of schedule to be able to do it at all. :)

Re-start with a bike. 3rd day 100% pain free. Doc says cross train. Start light jogging next week. Going to be much more careful and moderate on this one. Hope it takes. :)

injured Neighborhood walk 1.25 1.25 mi 00:20 15:40 pace
1.25 mile a little faster pace. Painful to walk but most pain gone within an hour following. Very good sign. Still hoping first run within 4 weeks. But not until doc says go.


Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, LOL. 5:57 is smoking fast!
