3.5 on the TM, ~29:40.  Foot actually felt better today but had some asymmetrical soreness from those 3 miles yesterday (left quad, ham).  Sigh.  Day off tomorrow anyway.  It doesn't feel like I'm favoring my left leg at all, but after weeks of not putting weight on my right foot, who knows.  I think it'll even out eventually.

Nice Joe- I think it will feel weird. Nature of not using something. Or its a Valentine Day pain or something.

7.5 miles in two days is practically an ultra based on your previous symptoms. Nicely done.

Continue to take it slowly and be smart about it.
