Ran 6 miles this morning to see how the knee felt.  I am proud to say that it is no longer hurting.  It felt great.  I picked it up a few miles to see what that would do and all is good. My training is back on now.  I need to remember to stretch a lot in my hamstring and my knee but it is such a good feeling to know I am doing better.

Still trying to get my knee back in to shape.  It is so up and down right now. Some days it feels great and other days it hurts.  Today felt good.  Let's hope it continues to feel good.

Did a Wallsburg run.  After having ran yesterday I wanted to see how my knee could handle 2 days in a row. It was great. Didn't feel it at all.  I also ran with Tristram Jones and he was doing 20 but wanted to do 12-14 at MP.  I decided to go with him.  Surprisingly I did pretty good considering having take 2 weeks off.  Got a pretty tired on the last uphill we ran but then was able to recover on the downhill just before the dam at deer creek. I am happy with how the progress is going.
