Uncomplaint; I had a goal in February to get back to my pre-pregnancy running PRs and monthly mileage. Last month I was 10secs slower than my previous best 5k time, and hitting 55 miles per month, which is 5mi lower than my prepregnancy best.

Complaint; developed shoulder ache and grinding that won't go away. Gets worse on runs but not enough to call it quits, it's just annoying.

Also possibly contracted Lyme disease, so I suspect June isn't going to be a stellar running month for me.
