I ran 10k and 15k Monday and Tuesday. Both runs were focused on easy and light. Yesterday's weather was early morning crap and today was still a bit chilly. +2 for both days. Rain yesterday, wind today. All in all, I really would like to get into some short sleeves and run a bit. It will happen. Patience.
The thing about easy, light, smooth, fast, is the light part. Easy I can do, I, like just about everyone can be naturally relaxed under no pressure. For me it is trying not to see past the next step. Today and yesterday I got to points in the run where I began to think about how far I had to go. This of course defeats the point of Light (run like you don't care how far it is or how high the hill is).
All in all, getting back at it is very enjoyable. I'd like (grasping) to get in some nice 100km weeks or 100+ weeks over the next few weeks. We will see how that goes. I have a data set of four days and of course think it will last forever. (all that arises ceases).
I read Anton Krupicka's blog today and his continuing struggles with his shin which I only know about from reading about it. But he, like all of us I guess, has his own inner fight with not trying to over do it. Even someone in that kind of fantastic shape has that problem, that was interesting to read about.
I'm still pondering Conemarra on a regular basis. I did my first set of core exercises yesterday in what seems like 9 or 10 months. Trying to get back to that every other day if possible and eat right and stay hydrated.
Watching, learning, reading, running.
