Little Longer Today

2.25 Miles Easy - 20:00 Minutes - 8:55 Pace

Planned on 2 miles today, but around 1.75 miles, the treadmill stopped for no reason, and said to contact a technician....so I quick ran down and jumped on another one. Not wanting to start right back up at speed, I gave myself an extra quarter mile to ramp back up.

Knee is a bit sore

2 Miles Easy - 18:00 - 9:00 Pace

Well, my knee was a bit sore today, and I knew it would be. Was at my sisters and played some Wii, and I could tell it was going to hurt while I was playing. Especially the baseball and boxing. There is a little bit of that side to side motion like ping pong. But the run went well, so I am still hopeful for a full recovery. Looking forward to getting back to 15 mile easy runs, tempo runs and intervals :-)

A Couple More Miles

2 Miles Easy - 18:00 - 9:00 Pace

Another easy run, I think after the holidays I will test my knee a little more, maybe a 3 mile day, see how it goes. I also have to prep for running in Cali when I am out there. I haven't run outdoors yet during my "comeback", or on anything like the hills of San Fran.

Little Longer Than Planned

1.5 Miles East - 13:13 - 8:49 Pace

Feeling good got the best of me today....that and I Robot being on the tv on the treadmill. Today was a 1 mile day, and I just ran a little longer so I could see a good action sequence in the movie. Still feeling good, surely it will be 1 mile on Saturday.

2 More Slow Miles

2 Miles Easy - 18:00 - 9:00 Pace

I think easing back into running was a good idea, I don't seem to have any lingering effects from my knee injury.....at 2 miles that is, and I feel pretty good. Next week, assuming the rest of this week goes well, I think I will do two days at two miles, and one at one, see how that treats me. Hopefully by spring, I will be up to a much higher total miles, and long mile day, and I can start racing :-)

Knee is a non-factor right now

1 Mile Easy - 9:00- 9:00 - Pa

Another slow, short run today, but I am feeling really good....knee wise. Still struggling with breathing and muscle pain and all that, but I don't really even think about my knee when I run. Still going to take it really slow though

Late Night Running

1 Mile - 9:00 - 9:00 Pace

Ok, not that late, it was about 7:45 when I got on the treadmill. I took a trip to Indiana today to see a customer, and got back later than expected. Again, felt good, little soreness everywhere, but no issues......maybe a three mile day next week....we shall see.
