Feeling better than I should?

After last week and my 3 solid lunch day runs followed by a 12 miler on the weekend, I felt like I could run half way decent again. So leading into the week, I did 4 days in a row of 5 milers. Monday was fairly mellow after walking around close to 2-3 miles at church on Sunday and kind of recovery from my previous week..  Tuesday tempo in the 830 pace range but flat, and then 2 days in a row of 5 and 1100 gain and loss getting some climbing in. I felt great and no issues at all. That followed by 15 on Saturday toward Pac Ridge school with 1300 climbing was great ... and tiring.  Nice to be back at it but need to be careful not to over do it and jump up in the distance and time on feet too much too quickly.

Consistency

Finally returned to some consistency with my running after 3+ week of my back preventing it.

4.5, 6 and 7.5  Not bad for 4 days.

Not the start I wanted

4 months until PCT 50, 5 months until SD100 and my back is hosed! Its been 2 weeks now of my back issue just slowing me down. I can walk around but cannot do any real work or run. This (injury)typically happens in the early part of the year so maybe I am just getting it out of my system now.
