Back on the Road

They say "fall off a horse, get back in the saddle"... guess that applies to me.  For the past 4 weeks or so, I've been nursing on injury or another.  First tendonitis around my knee, then a wrenched back, blah, blah, blah.  I cross trained a little (read "not enough") and have been doing 3 mile walks at lunch time.  For the past couple of days, I've felt almost normal, maybe about 95% better.  I can't stand it anymore and I won't make my goals if I don't get back out there.  With that said, I'm going to head back out the door this afternoon.  I will, however, be taking it very, very easy.  My plan is to do 1 min/1min run/walk intervals and go 30 to 40 mins, or less if things start to bother me.  It's a beautiful spring day in Chicagoland and my hopes are high.

Wish me luck, please.
