Coming off a new baby born ~ 2 weeks ago and a slightly injured achilles' tendon(itis?). I rested and didn't run for 6 days straight.

This was my first run back. Ran at 8:45 pace.

Tuesday is my interval day at the local college track.

Ran 1 mile w/u at about 10:00 pace.

Ran two 1000's at 4:00. Actual pace was 4:03 and 4:01. The plan was to run 4-5 repeats, but my achilles' tendon was really hurting.

Ran 1 mile c/d at 10:00 pace.

With my achilles' tendon hurting, I think I'll bike as many miles as I can to take the place of those easy miles.

~35 min bike ride as warm-up.

-Then 800 run w/u. 2.5 miles at 7:00 threshold pace for 17:30 mins. Most 400 splits were at 1:45 or below. My achilles actually didn't hurt me much, and I felt really good stamina-wise for the most part.

-800 c/d run and then 15 easy bike home.
