Lunchtime run

I managed to get up and out fairly promptly today and it was an ok run, but I was a bit disappointed afterward to find that I was only marginally faster than on my long run on Saturday.

The good thing is that I no longer feel as though 1 minute is a terribly long time to run, so I should be able to move up to 2m:1m next week, and week 5 of my return-to-running plan.   Here's it is, for future reference:

Week 5: 30 min at 2m:1m.  30 min at 2m:1m.  5k weekend run at 1m:1m
Week 6: 30 min at 2m:1m.  30 min at 2m:1m.  15k weekend run at 1m:1m
Week 7: 30 min at 2.5m:1m.  30 min at 2.5m:1m.  5k weekend run at 1m:1m
Week 8: 30 min at 2.5m:1m.  30 min at 2.5m:1m.  18k weekend run at 1m:1m
Week 9: 30 min at 2.5m:1m.  30 min at 2.5m:1m.  5k weekend run at 1m:1m
Week 10: 30 min at 2.5m:1m.  30 min at 2.5m:1m.  20k weekend run at 1m:1m
Week 11: 30 min at 2.5m:1m.  30 min at 2.5m:1m.  5k weekend run at 1m:1m
Week 12: 30 min at 3m:1m.  30 min at 3m:1m.  10k weekend run at 1m:1m

Week 12 is about where I was before breaking the toe. 

I'm conscious that I haven't actually managed two consecutive weeks of running 3 times since I broke the toe.  Just managing that this week will be its own special achievement.
