Day #50! I made it! Another beautiful blue-skyed, yet freezing, morning! Lovely run around the neighborhood, 8:20am, frost everywhere, so I ran on the side of the road with the sun as much as possible. Walk breaks at 4, 7, 8, 9. Felt the knee at 7 so started doing walk/stretch breaks every mile and stopped doing the hills. Sprinted for the last .6 or so.
Entire thing including the walking (total 10.85) was 1:47:22. Splits: 10:16, 9:51, 9:53, 9:34, 9:51, 9:42, 9:16, 9:46, 9:19, 8:59, 8:50, 7:54 (.4)
Sadly I skipped Centergy, I need to do my long runs on Saturday! Then we were off to the dog beach (Cooper had a wonderful time), the famous Red Mill (was in Man vs. Food and #1 burger in Seattle but it was totally overrated, except for the thin mint milkshake which was the best thing I have ever had!) and some bingo (no I did NOT win). Great day! Until now, when my knee is bothering me and making me sad.
