My long run used to be my short run
I went over to PennDOT today and ran 3.5 miles in about 32 minutes. My legs felt fine during the run, but I could definitely tell my heart was working fairly hard to run 9 minute miles. I’ll definitely back off the pace a bit on Tuesday, the next time I am running. I think some of the work I did at the PT is paying off, I could feel I was pushing off the toes/ball of my feet more than I remembered in the past.
Later in the afternoon I drove over to the Conewago trail to get a moderate bike ride in. I went out to the 8 mile mark and turned around, riding for about an hour and fifeteen minutes in total. I plan on incorporating a lot of biking into my fitness routine which will hopefully allow me to ramp back up quicker than just running alone.

Keep up the good work. Sounds like things are coming along.
