Cassia Park - 44:37

Took the canals to Cassia where I did 2 laps and then back home the same way. 7:25/mile pace. Wish I could say it was easy, but it was rough. Nice warm afternoon, but lots of yard work had me a bit tired. Knee sore but decent enough to run on.

Treadmill at Axiom - 32:20

Slow, easy jog on the treadmill. It was boring and painful (knee), so not a stretch to call it painfully boring.

Canal banks - 26:02

Quick run at twilight. Busy evening so kept it short. Knee about 85%, and quite a bit better than yesterday.

Run to Rosehill and back - 56:35

Longest run in quite a while. Didn't feel that hot, but made it through. Even after 2 days off, the knee is still acting up.

Canal banks - 32:41

Steady pace on the canals and in the neighborhoods. Felt pretty good. Knee ok, but not great.

 

 Week 2 Summary - 25 miles

Disappointing that the knee is not doing much better, so I'll keep at the easy mileage for a bit longer. Maybe 30-32 miles this next week.
