Personal:
A CPT in the US Army stationed at Fort Benning, GA. I've three wonderful kids and the best wife I could ask for. Been away from the running scene for a while, and I sure miss it. Trying to make a comeback!
Had a nice longer run today. My IT band was starting to bug me a bit, not sure how much of it was the distance or it being so cold. I am sure it was a mixture of both. Average pace was pretty slow, but we had some good hills.
Knee started hurting again, so I just went a mile then into the gym on a stationary bike. Did 7 miles on that in just about 30 min. Hopefully tomorrow the knee will feel better and weather will be warmer.
A good run today. Did some tempo stuff, but it wasn't anything amazing. The tempos were fairly short, somewhere between 250m to 450m or so, with about as much rest. Nothing scientific or numbers oriented about it.
