    5.000.000.00

      Ran 4k, walked 1k, then ran another 3. This was harder than I thought it would be. I know I could run 10k just 2 months ago, but now I'm back to 5-8k. Maybe because I waited until noon and the weather was hot.  I guess I realize you can't put running distance miles into a magic running bank and expect to get them back whenever you want. You have to keep running the longet distances frequently, or your body can't keep doing them.

    excellent assesment, but I think you should still try the 10K Saturday. Run what you can and then take a walk break and resume when you're ready...or just before then :) Nice job pushing through the miles!!

    I agree with RAD. set the 10k goal, and walk if you need a break. You'll get your fitness level & running back, just remember to "take 'er easy" and not over-do it too soon.

    Good to have you back.
