After a three days off, a nice 4.5 mile run. Put on the long sleeve T, black running tights, favorite socks and laced the shoes up for a pain free run.
Wait though? Did I say tights? Yep! It was actually 41 degrees when I left the house. My wife enjoyed the look! However, I only wear them if it is below 40 degrees. Or, like this AM if I am not used to running below 45. I go with shorts until the temps get down to 40.
The foot? I would not say 100% ( but close), however, no pain. Still had some stiff/tenderness running on it. I think the big test - how it recovers from this short 4.5 miler and how it feels on the next run. Knees felt great. Very fluid and strong. Along with everything else as well.
Soccer/Pizza Party was a blast. I am all ready for next season. I hope all my little Mia Hamm's return in the Spring.
Thanks for all your insights and concern. Have fun in SoCal, South Dakota, Colorado, Utah and Seattle. Very grateful to have great family, friends and of course fantastic blogging friends in the running world.
Cheers!

Right on. Amazing how good a run of any length feels when you have missed a few!
Everyone was wearing tights at track last night...it was only about 50 degrees but it was chilly! So happy the foot is doing well Stay well and warm...
Tights in 50 degrees .... That's shorts and a singlet in Colorado!!!
LOL!
Glad the foot is feeling almost 100%. I see people rocking the tights pretty frequently, but I just can't do it w/o pants over them. Yet I can strut around in a bikini just find in the summer....go figure. :p
Running tights? Whoohooo!! Where's the pics? He HE.
I haven't ran in a few days, not up to it, I am sure that I will enjoy my first run once I feel better!
