5K after a month rest

I've had a rough go of it lately with a pulled muscle near the hamstring (from playing capture the flag -- no more of that) and a ligament tear in my 5th metatarsal of my left foot. I remember this from my right foot, and I need to simply rest and get it better. But I did run the Run for the Schools after having signed up for the race. 25:51 -- or 8:20 pace. My first mile with Alyse was 8:40 -- trying to get going. My second mile was 8:20. My third 1.1 was 8:51 (8:02 pace). So it was good for not having run in probably a month.

Now it's rest time -- 6 weeks -- to get this healed.
