I haven't posted in eons it seems.
I'm here. I'm well. I'm running.
It's taken me so long to climb back up the running ladder. I've had to go so slowly and carefully. But I'm back. I'm really back. I'm finally up to 5-6 miles now and trying to work on speed. For now my speed really sucks, but at least the endurance is up. I'm only up to 9 minute miles right now.*[edited - I'm a dumbass and put 9 miles/hr]* But that will change. I will get there.
I have a 10k on September 20 and a half marathon on November 16. I'm scared. I'm way too competitive to race. What will happen is this: I'll get out there and finish with no problem, but because my speed isn't even REMOTELY competitive yet I will not finish as close to the front of the pack as I'd like and then I'll beat myself up about it. Yep, that's how it will go....
In other news: Today is my 5 year anniversary at work. Oh joy.
But the anniversary comes with an annual review (always stellar), which comes with a bonus, which I will use to buy new glass for my camera. And THAT rocks.

Good to see you back
Welcome back!
(BTW- Do you mean 9 min/miles? Because 9min/hour is crazy fast)
Good to see you're back! You'll have a great half mary and you need NOT to beat yourself up. I know that's not easy.
How goes the training? I will be thinking about you on Saturday!
