Yesterday afternoon, I did my first long run since the Marine Corps Marathon 10K, almost a month ago. I did 7 miles on the treadmill. I stuck to a 5.8 mph speed the whole time, since I was pretty tired. That meant I finished in 1:12:25. I did the first 20 minutes with only one break, but I did take more and more breaks as the run went on. I ran without my calf wrap, in the hopes that my gait would return to normal. I'm not sure if it did or not, but I didn't have any specific pain. My left quad and the outside of my left thigh are still oddly sore.
This morning I did P90X2 X2 Shoulders + Arms. I increased my weights for some moves, so that I'm using 20-lb per hand only for the triceps moves. I'm also using 25-lb per hand for some of the shoulder presses. I am already sore, but I'm pleased that I am able to lift so much, even while doing the balancing. I burned about 140 calories in the workout.
