This running stuff hurts?

I ran my first long run in 7 weeks today. 13 miles, out of 25 for the week. Probably a little too much, too soon.

Fastest “long run” in over two months and first long run in 7 weeks.

Hip soreness, slightly sore back, and right ankle is bothering me. However, I feel pretty good about my run.
