First workout of just about any kind in a while. Work has been nuts but I needed to take care of it before it overran me.

Running with a new pair of ASICS GT-IIs that I haven't seen in their form (minus the different insole) in literally 35 years. They felt light and honestly just like what I remember from high school. Wow.

I don't know if the pace today was just not having run in a while, or new shoes, or something, but it didn't feel particularly hard. So that was not so bad.

Beautiful running weather after the last three days of constant rain. This is not so bad. Today was deliberately zone 3 but not too hard - first day running in literally six days on top of the lack of work I've done all April long. I don't think things are going to relent until late May, sadly. Hoping to keep momentum a bit at least.

First run in almost two weeks. This was going to be ugly, and I was only gunning for slow base-building again, but what I didn't count on was the weather, which is a good 20-25F hotter than what I've been used to in the last few weeks. I knew I was starting to dehydrate out in a bad way so I was being judicious in the last mile, but it's been a while since I've felt that.

I need to start somewhere. Here is as good as anywhere.
