5 miles!! 🥳
Longest run in over a month and it felt easy start to finish!!
After two long days on my feet, I wasn’t sure how it was going to go today. I was mentally prepared to dial it back to 5k, but this afternoon everything felt perfect, even the weather! This is a huge relief and confidence boost! ☀️👟🩵

Frustration and patience giving way to a more consistent routine. ☀️
Focusing on rest and rehab. Still working in short intervals, holding this distance, focusing on form and heart rate. Most comfortable run in ages, easy pace, low HR even in warmer temps. This feels like progress. ☀️👟🩵

This afternoon’s run was a huge win!
Knee is feeling strong, paced myself when I wanted to push myself, it was chilly but I wasn’t overdressed, and when I was done, it was sunny and mild, and I got to hang out with one of my favorite tiny neighbors… lawn mower, bubbles, balls, and chalk. ☀️ 👟 🩵

Easy 5k, happy to be out in the sun, happy to be warm enough to break a sweat! ☀️
My knee is feeling pretty good, and I’m sticking to plan, long warmup with activations, 1:1 intervals, low HR.
I post here to keep track of my training, for some accountability, and hopefully to encourage others.
And often, I post as a reminder to myself how great it feels to be out here. Grateful for every step. ☀️👟🩵

Not quite up to speed, and definitely not up to unpredictable terrain, but I wanted to put in the effort for tonight’s hill workout. Had this hill all to myself for 16 repeats… knee held up really well… ran to effort rather than pace. Slowly getting back on track. ☀️👟🩵

I check these numbers first thing every morning, especially recovering from an injury. And ESPECIALLY especially the day after we spring forward! 😉
It’s fascinating to me how closely these track to an injury or when I’m not feeling great. Even when I’ve gotten plenty of sleep, but still feeling knee pain, my HRV reflected that.
I didn’t set an alarm, because I wanted as much sleep as possible. My knee feels so much better, and these numbers are headed back to my normal.
Just like running stats, numbers don’t always tell the whole story, but I love when seeing trends helps me make training and rest choices that support my overall health! That’s my best bet for continuing onward ☀️👟🩵

5K run and done ✅
So happy and relieved to be back at it this morning!! The first quarter mile my knee was lit up, but with 1:1 intervals, I’m always less than a minute from a rest, and by the half mile, my knee was warmed up and fine for the rest of the run! Afterward, it actually feels better than it did this morning! 🤞🏼
Most of all, so happy to see friends this morning!! ☀️👟🩵
