I ran out to GU Corner and then back to the house all via canal road, I ran with a compression knee brace and it seemed to do the trick, it was a little tender but it stayed pretty strong through the whole run. The mile from Gu Corner to Mini GU I picked up the pace and ran a MP mile of 7:42, it felt pretty good, my average pace for the run was 8:21 with my total time at 1:24:34. I was able to wear shorts again today, I really like these lazy days you can sleep in and then run when the sun is out, its just beautiful!!! I felt like I could have ran more but with my leg feeling the way that it does I just didn't want to over do it... Its been a good week of training and I'm happy with everything so far, I just want to stay steady and strong!

See ya Monday.

Clay, many things to be thankful for, some of us are just not made to run 70 mile weeks, it seems your working thru the issues.

Stay Kool, b of BS Rools out - hey funny thing, every time I read your blog, look at the 2007 Riverwoods 1/2 marathon, the last good half marathon race I had.
