Alien Resurrection; a stinkfest.  My rt knee has been sore in the aftermath of Saturday's long run, like a bruise underneath the cap.  It doesn't hurt to touch or move the cap around, but it stiffens when I sit for a while.  I started running tonight and I could feel the soreness, but it wasn't anything much, so I stuck with the plan.  2 mile warmup, 6 @ 7:30, 1 cooldown.  My knee feels fine now; I iced it for 15 seconds when I went to get something out of the garage.  It's really cold in there.

Legit snow today, very light and powdery.  Since the boys were off school, I left it to them, and went to real work.  I love when that happens.   

I heard a good song today:  Sweet Sour.  "Sour by the minute, but you're sweeter by the hour."  I think the artist is talking about running.  The sour is the lactic acid buildup when you are running hard and fast.  The sweetness is, well, it's an hour+ run with all the endorphins.  Correct me if I'm wrong.

and we always find a way to "try another spoonful"...

glad your knee is okay -- i'm sure the icing session had something to do with it.

Nice job icing the knee. Big improvement from 10 seconds. Keep it up!
