On the road to recovery: I broke each foot on separate occasions this year and was finally cleared to run again as of Nov 13. I’ve run every day since then, slowly increasing my base and prepping for marathon training starting in mid-January.

I never shy away from a hill and I can’t hardly wait for actual speed work to start again soon.
