Today was finally the day when I was able to get back on the road. I did three miles in slower than molasses time of 28:55. I’d be lying if I said it didn’t feel pretty awful, a lot of weird aches and pains in my hip, in my shin and a little in the foot where I have been suffering from tendinitis. But, none of them were all that bad. I’m going to take tomorrow off and then if nothing is hurting, do another three on Friday.

My plan from here on out is to really slowly build back up the miles, sticking religiously to the 10 percent rule. If all goes well I should be back up to my pre bar exam mileage in a couple of months and then I can start considering where I want to go from there. Watch this space for the fascinating details of my recovery!
