Not a real exact distance today, since I just went out and wandered around some neighborhoods at an easy pace for 40 minutes or so. I initially planned for more miles, but I didn't have much pep and let the rainy Sunday morning get the best of me. Mileage will increase again this week, though slowly because I'm still feeling the aches and pains of getting into shape.

A variation on one of my regular runs, still trying to come up with more options so I don't get stuck on the same loop over and over. Yesterday I had felt a twitch in my knee, the same knee that had ITBS last fall, but today everything was fine. Feeling in shape and strong now, I can tell my fitness is improving.

The funny feeling in my knee came back. It's not a really specific pain, nor very intense, and it comes and goes. Regardless, I cut the run short to spend more time stretching. Other than that the run was good, and I included a few striders. Planning for my longest run to date of the season for tomorrow to round out the week.

Really good day today. Manette Bridge to Bachman Park, up Trenton to Illahee Park road and back. Long run without pain in my knee (a big relief after the other morning), and I added two miles of up tempo (I don't have a pace, but I got my heart rate and effort up for a sustained period). I'll recover tomorrow, but still try to get mileage to start off the week, I'm hoping to hit 30 miles this coming week.
