Thursday morning run

Finally, the weather cooperated and it was prefect running weather. Did 9 miles thursday morning. the first long run since the half IM and it felt really good. It's been almost a month and I finally feel good again. The cold is gone, the cough is gone, the energy seems to be back. Took only one walk break after sprinting up the final part of a half mile hill, but really didn't need to. Did this same loop in August and it took 10 minutes longer that time than this time. Hopefully this is a good sign for the rest of this year...
