A beautiful Sunday afternoon for a trail run. Lower 40's and sunny, not bad for end of December in Kansas. The Topeka Trail Gator's meet each Sunday afternoon at 2:30 for a group run through the trails at the Governors Mansion, today the group was small. Only 4 of us...
My last run was on these trails and amounted to less than one mile. That was over two weeks ago. After a couple weeks of laying off the stretching and no running, I was optimistic about how far I could go today without any pain or reminders of my injury. God is good! I was able to cover about 4 miles today on the trails without any issues. The last three minutes heading in, I noticed a small flare up in my ITB, but nothing like a few weeks ago.
I will certainly continue the cross training with swimming and biking a few times a week, but I am more than ready to start logging those running miles again. I miss the friendships and communication with my friends in the running community.
