Usually, I heed the recommendation to wait a month before running after a marathon. Oddly, since Tuesday I have dearly wanted to lace up again. With the exception of a minor issue on the sole of one foot, I was all healed up and even scaling things at work. Today Tiff wanted to go for a run and I said, "I'm in!" It felt good to get out and run. I must confess, the weight of the miles last Sunday caught up to an extent before mile 1 was finished, but I kept an easy pace. At times my new affinity for the run has me a shade concerned. When you know you should take a month off and you can not hack 7 days, it raises some red flags. On the other hand, compared to other compulsions, this one isn't registering as a big concern.
