     6 miles. Minimal knee pain from the start but didn't get any worse. Maybe even best last mile.

     Decided I'd better try a longer run since I've got SGM in 3 weeks. I didn't know if the knee would hold up but figured I'd find out. I started out around 8:35 pace and picked it up slightly each mile and averaged 8:17 for the first 7 miles. Then I picked it up a little more and averaged 7:37 for the last 8 miles. The last 4 miles I averaged 7:25 pace and counted those as marathon pace since I'll be lucky if I can keep that pace in the upcoming marathon. My knee was slightly sore again from the start but I didn't notice anything during the last few miles. Hopefully I can get in a 20 miler next week.
