run 39:09 8.02 km (4:53 / km) +61m 4:42 / km
ahr:148 max:166 shoes: Saucony Triumph Iso2
Pre-dinner jog as it got dark. Pretty sure now that a big part of my soreness is the 5 x 40m sprints that I did with no warm-up in a Friday PE class. The hamstring soreness I have now is very different to the usual aches and pains I get when I re-start running.
This evening's effort was probably half way between what I should have done and what I wanted to do.
Next step is to actually get out for some morning exercise.

cycle 1:55:30 54.47 km (2:07 / km) +252m 2:04 / km
ahr:150 max:189 shoes: Avanti Blade
Solo ride to Moonyoonooka, then across towards cHapman Valley, where I failed to realise which road I was on and rode the wrong way for about 5km.
That made the return slog into the breeze and over the Moresby Ranges a bit of a challenge. Got pretty hungry arounf 90 minutes.
Felt better than expected given what my legs felt like when I started.

I imagine that how I feel trying to get back into running as I age must be something like what people who have always been unfit feel like when they start trying to run. There is a lot more pain involved than there used to be, and consequently less enjoyment and feeling awesome.
Threw in a few half hearted surges towards the end just to try to force myself to run with a proper stride.
Definitely feeling stiff and sore from Tuesday night, and tired from editing reports after midnight last night.

run 30:29 6.58 km (4:38 / km) +26m 4:33 / km
ahr:148 max:165 shoes: Saucony Triumph Iso2
Failed to launch in the morning, but resisted the urge to eat dinner and got out the door at about 7:30pm.
Felt a bit better than expected. My watch claims on the basis of this run, that I am at my fittest for the entire year. Given it was my first run in 6 weeks, I find that quite hard to believe.
If anyone knows any awesome English teachers that want to get out of the big city, let me know!
