Summary not a very good week between weather and my back feeling a bit off early in the week. I think it is pretty obvious I have been playing it very cautious. The last few years I have tried to train like I did when I was running full time and it seems every time I start to get fit I get a set back. So I have made up my mind to focus on just being steady and letting more slide. This doesn't work too well with my personality but so far the results are pretty good. I'm actually back to decent shape and hopefully I can move forward from here. I could see myself running pretty well by May/June if I don't have any major set backs. Only time will tell.
I think this is a 5k from faster days. Anyway it is a good image of what the 5k feels like when you get a good effort out. I'm racing one this weekend so good to remind myself what I need to to do.
