3 miles in 28:26

RUN ANALYSIS:
3 miles in 28:26 at 9:29 pace per mile and 6.32 mph; out and back splits ( 14:49, 13:37); mile by mile 10:02, 9:28, 8:56.

Weight 225. This was my first run in over a month and it felt...GOOD to be out there again. I was hoping to average 10 minute miles and finish in 30 minutes but I was pleasantly surprised that my legs felt faster than that. I am particularly pleased with the last mile in 8:56 given my lack of conditioning.

Work is starting to slow down and hopefully I will get back into a good routine. This time around, I want to run for the sake of running and not to "train" for an event. We will see.

It has been a long time

I think I need to evaluate what it would take to rebalance my work, life, play. Work has occuppied way too much, virtually eliminating life and play, hence, no running. And without that activity and all my wonderful eating habits, my weight is going up.

I know what is wrong, I just need to do something about it...qyick before it gets further out of control.
