0545 hrs. Dawn Patrol. Campus Loop. Back in the game after a horrible, already discussed ankle sprain, which was followed up by a month off due to a minor eye surgery that kept me sidelined for most of February. I have gained 15 lbs and am rapidly approaching "Bloated Toad" status. Cleared by the doctor to resume physical activity, I'm back in the saddle again. Layered up and hit the cold trail (35 degrees Fahrenheit, 2 degrees Celsius) in the pre-dawn hours. Completed the 3.28 miles in a sub-sonic 35:34 for a 10:51 min/mile pace. Not my fastest work, but it did feel good to be out on the road again. Mahalo.
