Distance: 4 miles
Time: 40:32
Pace: 10:08 min/mi
Comments: This run went a hell of a lot better than I would expect following a weeklong layoff. That doesn't mean this run was very much fun.
The mornings are officially torpid and I made a rather large mistake waiting to get out until after the sun was up. With temps in the 80s the only blessing was the humidity was just at 'brutal' rather than 'hellish."
So, yes, I was slow but my last two miles were exactly the same pace so consistency is nice. Moreover, I didn't really get that walk-it-in impulse which is a very good sign.
