First time on the road since I was diagnosed with my stress reaction. It felt great. I only ran 2 miles, and my pace was quite slow (10:45/mile) as I was trying hard to minimize the impacts of my steps. After nearly 4 weeks without running, I was pleased that my cardio and aerobic conditioning seemed to be pretty good. Of course, I was barely jogging...but I didn't get winded, and my muscles didn't feel fatigued. I felt like I could have gone another 5 miles...but I need to be super cautious right now.
After the run, my leg felt pretty good. Still no pain.
