8 more treadmill miles. 8:15 base pace with 2.5 miles thrown in at 6:40 to keep it interesting. Starting to burn out pretty bad on the running in place thing. To be on the safe side, I am even staying off the roads. I really miss the trails. Every day on the way to and from the gym I look up at Malan's peak (tonight bathed in alpenglow with beautiful clouds hanging on Mt Ogden) and think about how much I wish I could get back up there. Really enjoyed runnning that this winter, especially the night runs. The last time I ran Malan's was at night and it was a solid double, running 100% of both laps for about 4400 vert in 5 miles. That was almost 3 weeks ago. Hopefully I haven't lost too much by running only flats. I am thankful that my knee isnt so bad that it keeps me from running at all. Seems like it's getting much better. One week till the MRI, and the decision on surgery. |
