Back on the Road - 9 miles (517 total)

9.19 miles
1:13:02
7:56 pace

Training again after a 1-week break. Legs were getting to the point where I was afraid of forming shin splints. Pain went away pretty thoroughly after about 5 days, and I hope the rest allowed me to consolidate some gains. I last took a break back in August, and came back much stronger afterward.

Good run today, although the usual 9 mile route only seemed to take me about 8.5 today, and I had to run some extra. Pace felt good, although it felt a bit faster than what I actually clocked. Hope I can keep 9 miles as my standard weekday run now and try to work from 15 to 20 on the weekends.

Looks like a good start back after the break.
