So happy to have this day come. It sounds ridiculous to say it felt like forever when I was only off activities for 8 days but it did feel long.
Everything felt good and there was zero discomfort so I am really pleased. Made a promise that I would do no more than 15 minutes even if it felt normal. Tomorrow will go out for 25 minutes and do a short VFF run to top it off. It felt really good mentally to get out too- that was as needed to de-stress a little. The pace was around 6:00/k to start but by halfway was skirting 5:00/k feeling fine. Didn't want any risk off pushing anything and causing more delay.
I have a big smile on my face from a mere 3k run.
Talked to Mike H. today and he never ceases to amaze me with his selflessness. A close friend already but one that is generous beyond words week in and out. As he preps for IM Tremblant this summer he is making some changes and additions to the TT bike and it includes a new Quarq....sweet....and so offered to me his Powertap!! He had every answer ready why he should give it to me when I suggested he sell it. Training with wattage has been something I have always wanted and this offer is unreal. Told him to make the decision that works for him best so we'll see. While I would love to have fun using it I don't know what it would do to plans for running races vs. tris. No sure I want to change focus but would definitely want him to think it was going to good use and the most made of it. This may get confusing, haha. He is quite a guy though.
