I ran out towards the Stake Center to see how the knee would be and it seemed to be pretty well, so I stretched for a minute and then headed out towards Mini GU corner but after I hit my 2 mile mark I started to have some stomach issues so I turned and headed for home. I didn't get very far when I felt that I wasn't going to make it, so I tried to find a secluded spot and take care of business. It was brutal and I forgot to turn off my watch so it said that I had a 12 minute mile, and man did it feel like!!! After the VPB I started out again and ended up with a couple more to round out the 6 miles, my knee feels okay but I think I will take it easy tomorrow and then run the local 5K on Saturday. My son Ethan is running the mile the same day so he wanted me to pace him for that and then I am running the 5K right after that, I was suppose to be running the riverwoods half but family comes first and I can't let my son down. It will be my 1st 5K ever so it should be interesting to see how I do, I finished up today with some push-ups and rolled both legs.
