8:30a - started the run from house, and it immediately started raining harder. Usually, 55 degrees and raining is not a game changer, but, I find myself a bit more cautious these days with potential cold cuasing circumstances. Also, I think I was a bit underdressed. Went back to the house, and set up to run on TM for a while with a Netflix movie (Terminator Salvation) and the fan going. Settled in for a long slow mileage on TM - was even throwing in walking to avoid hurting the knee. (The TM hurts the knee if a go too hard on it with or without incline) 1.6 miles outside - 13:40, 5 miles on the TM - 56:20.
The wife broke in and kindly informed me taht the sun was out. Hopped off the Dreadmill, and switched back to outside. Much better, though my legs were now pretty drained.
10:30a - 13.4 miles out and back to Harrison Lakes. No rain, but, my knee can tell I have been on our sketchy home treadmill. Struggled for 10-11 miles, and then finished fairly strong. 1:55:55. Didn't run into too many people. Other than the 2 young girls on bikes taht didn't know any better, everybody kept their distance.
Happy Easter from isolation. Pretty frustrating to hear about all the people insisting on going to church gatherings.
Only 3.5 miles to go for making the weekly 100 (Mon-Sun).
