So after a full seven days off, I did three easy miles yesterday. I suffered no pain on the run and only minimal stiffness afterwards. Today I woke up with a little pain in the hip, but not enough to keep me off the roads. I’ll do three miles again today. Tomorrow, if I am feeling up to it, I am going to go long.

I’m on Cape Cod for the holiday weekend and running up here at this time of year is perfect. Still chilly enough that you’re not dying, but sunny enough to get to work on my summer tan. I’ll try and post some photos of the national seashore where I have been running soon.
