Whew!

I could not be happier with my running efforts if I paid me.

I'm obviously thrilled to be back to running in the first place, and even running on the treadmill yesterday wasn't that bad, I reminded myself, and never again will I take for granted the ability to just, you know, RUN.

And despite not feeling altogether too great lately, I could not be prouder of myself right now. I ran like a bitch tonight, almost 6.5 miles, and averaged a 10:35 pace. For that long of a distance. Holy moses.

I'm going to go and soak my sore limbs now. My thyroid can kiss my ass. It might make me fat, tired and bald, but it's not going to make me slower.

That is great time on a great run. Wow. I am struggling to get from a 5k to 10k and can't get faster than 11 minutes per mile or go longer than 4.75 miles. You rock!

Well done! Just keep at it, your thyroid can be pounded back into shape :)

Best wishes!

Great job on the run. I know you felt so good after. I sometimes like the treadmill because you can push yourself at a consistent pace. It's tough for me to keep my pace even on the road. Hope you keep feeling good/better.
