After taking it easy this weekend I was really anxious to get outside for a bit today.  Per doctor's orders I rode bike instead of running.  A quick loop around the Young Ward Loop was just the thing I needed.  T-31:30 (20mph ave) convert to 3 miles x-train.

Oh, the leg was sore all weekend from the shot but things feel better now.  Still, the test is running, not biking.  We shall see...

PM: 2 Miles running to test things out.  IT band was sore after 1.5 miles, but no pain in the knee.  Played it safe and called it.

AM: 5 MILES! Yep, you read it right.  All running miles and leg was no more sore after 5 then it was at 3.  That is, mild tightness in upper ITB.  No knee pain during or after.  Sweet!  Progress.

Trail Run - 

After a long drought, Joe and I finally hooked up for a run.  Sure, it was for only an hour, but it was great.  We are getting excited for the mountains to clear and we can endure some sweet adventure runs.  Today's jaunt was the longest run I have done in 8 weeks.  I survived it without any pain.  There was a lot of tightness during the last 3 miles, but since those miles were downhill, I blame the hills.  I still have to take it easy, but I think things are looking up. 

Today's run (for me) was starting at First Dam and up the River Trail to the Spring Hollow loop.  (The right fork then down to third dam at the 4 way intersection).  It doesn't matter, it was on dirt!  Mild rain throughout, but who cares it was awesome.  Alright, you get the point.
