It really is nice outside, and with the forecast looking not-so-hot in the next week, I made myself get outside and soak in that sun. It was 45 degrees but quite perfect for running.
And it was a great run....probably the best one I've had in way more than a month. It was a three-miler and my shin felt just fine, and I was able to end it really strong b/c a great song came on my iPod that had a perfect rhythm of an 11-minute-a-mile pace. So the last quarter mile felt awesome. It's been awhile since I could run that pace.
It was still a pathetic time, and nowhere near close to where I used to be, but I can see progress being made and that thrills me.
I'm also thrilled to say that I still haven't eaten one morsel of bad food in these 5.5 weeks, and it feels really good.

Great to hear you sounding happy again. You must be one of those people who thrives on sunshine! (There hasn't been one day since December that I would dream of running outside.)
