Last week we got off to a good start. On Tuesday we had 4 runners show up at Thompson, since we were all coming off a running hiatus or nursing injuries—we kept the run SLOW and STEADY. That 2 miles was my first continuous (no walk run) in a LONG time and I felt great.
On Friday we were had our long run planned. C was able to get in 2.5 before she had to literally run off to an appointment, while N and I went the 5. I was sucking wind by mile 3---in hindsight I should have done a run:walk (3:1) for the first 3-4 miles---I would have been able to run faster, go longer, and feel stronger. I was hurting by the end and had to walk a couple of times—that’s what I get for taking so much time off.

Good idea to schedule your run for the week, it's easier to stay on track when you have a plan! :)
