The speed is coming back

I did a five mile run today.  I wanted try and run a bit quicker so I pushed from the word go.  I found a decent pace and really felt good.  I felt strong and wanted to go quick.  I feet felt light and I knew it was going to be a good time if I could keep it up.

Running is so exhilarating on days like this, when all the training and hard work comes out.  These are my splits which I am delighted with.  I'm back baby, I'm back!!!
