Toe Isn't Healed

This morning I woke up nice and early. Rolled out of bed at 6:00am and was on the road by 6:10am. I was sleepy, and the first mile took a lot more effort then what it should have to get my legs moving. Mile one went by at 8:38, even though it felt like I was running a seven minute mile. Mile two I slowed a bit, but I was finally waking up, so my effort level fell considerably. Mile two passed in a time of 9:19. Mile three was very tough, the mercury was already beggining to rise, even though it was only 6:30am at this point. I took a bit of a walk break from about 22:15-22:50, the 85ยบ temps were starting to hit me. Mile three finished at 9:28. My pace was slowly falling as the temps were slowly rising. I walked another four-hundredths of a mile to cool my body down a bit. As I sit here typing this my toe is starting to bother me, I was hoping it was finally healed, apparently not.

Mile splits (which are posted above):
Mile 1 - 8:38
Mile 2 - 9:19
Mile 3 - 9:28
3-3.04 - :38

Total - 28:04 - 9:14/mi
