OK to ease back

Running Log:
2.133 miles - 30 min.

I am giving myself permission to build back up to where I was. With that, tonight I ran at a 4.9 clip on the treadmill for 20 minutes. I probably could have gone longer, but I wouldn't have felt good. I was sufficiently tired after 20 minutes and felt like it's a good start to build my endurance up.

In short, not my best, but I am perfectly okay with it. I am still aiming for 1,000 miles this year, but that can't always be my focus. I was getting too upset at being behind in mileage for the month. I need to relax about it. I'll either get there or I won't.

Tonight's short run felt good.
