T-Minus 35 Days and Counting, Part 1. . .

My recovery from last week's illness continued unabated during my 8-mile tempo run on Wednesday. Ran home from my work on the west side of Rockford to the east side. Did not have the GPS with me so I relied on the route that Jen had plotted for me. All in all, it went well, as I held steady at about 8:55 pace and scorched the last mile in 7:55, based on the already-measured mile from the Rock Valley College campus near our house. Felt great during the whole run, temps were good and had no foot or ankle issues.
