Back from Miami... Back to the grind

After a long weekend in Miami, I got back into the routine this week. I took Monday off, with the justification that I needed to give my body time to recover after a weekend of torture.

Wednesday it was back to my normal routine. I started back with a 30 minute jog on the E. River. Nothing too fast, nothing too slow. I tried to make up for my missed run on Monday with an ab workout at the soccer field.

Each time I begin one of these runs with the mental inventory of what my last few runs was. Once I determine, based on previous runs, whether this one is going to be long or short, fast or slow, I realize that I have no idea what I am doing. In theory I would like to build towards something. Get the most out of each run. Gain some sort of physical equity. However, I think I am just continuing run for the sake of it. Perhaps I will seek out some answers to these questions I have.
