Well after a week and a half off, I did my first workout of 2009 this morning. I went for a four mile run in and around Hoboken. Between the cold (38 degrees), the fact that I have not worked out since before Christmas, and some major hills along the way, it definitely was not my best run. I ended up averaging 7:44/mile pace, compared to my last few treadmill runs which have been around 7:13. I am not particularly bothered by this run -- it is January 3rd, I already have two months of training under my belt, and I am only seven pounds above my targeted racing weight, so from a big picture perspective, I could not be happier.
