Back to work tomorrow

Day 3 of being off work started well. I got Kristin to preschool and headed back to the middle school to hit the track to see what I could do. I decided beforehand that I would start off with running/jogging and see how far I could go. I'm happy to say that I hit a mile pretty easily. Well, easy is relative. I was huffing and puffing because I pulled a 10:21 mile. That's pretty fast for me, so I walked the next lap and the rest of the time was spent alternating between walking and running...running the straights and walking the curves. The last minute and a half to 2 minutes I pushed a little harder and ran until I hit the 30 minute mark. I felt good about it, but wished I could have run a bit farther. I don't want to push it, though, and hurt myself further. Today's run was done mostly without pain. I'm note quite sure how the rest of training will play out since tomorrow is Kristin's last day of preschool and since Clayton is in school most days of the week. I guess I'll have to try to get a couple evening runs in when he's off work. I'd like to get at least 3 more in before the 10K on the 28th and hopefully be able to increase my mileage at least by a little so I feel a little more confident about the race.
