Paradise, CA. Ran with dad 6:12 a.m. from home to PHS track. I was trying my run for the first time after I injured it on Wed to see if I could run a long run. I ran about 3-4 miles into it and then my knee started hurting again. L knee on inside to back of knee. I had to start doing walk/run walk/run sets but still hurt so I eventually had to just walk. I walked the way from PHS back home. That was so depressing! Dad ran 20 miles on the track by himself. Go dad! His determination and attitude really impresses me and inspires me to do better. I will just work on getting me knee back into shape again and won't dwell on "what ifs." I will keep training but will cut back some so it has time to heal.

Hemlock Rd. Ran usual loop (home-rd, loop, and back). Then ran 3 loops in apt. complex to make it a complete 3 miles. About 5:30 p.m. after work. I was very tired and unmotivated but I ran after work. I had a granola bar to help with my blood sugar because I didn't have time at work to eat lunch. Took it easy just to see if I could do 3 miles without aggrevating my knee. My knee did start to hurt some, same spot, L knee inside at about the end of mile 1. Then somewhere near there and near the end my R knee hurt a tiny bit but went away. Both the pain in both legs did go away so I was able to complete my run. :) somewhat encouraged.

TT: 29:16                            Avg: 9:41 min.                        Max: 7:21 min.

Splits: 9:31, 9:46, 9:44, 9:59 (last number was just .3/mile)
