Well, my gaol was 4 miles and I was able to get there today... Not a whole lot of pain mostly just achy around the knee area and not so much in the IT band which is a good sign. I'll see how it feels in the morning and then go from there. My goal is to just ease back into it this week. My average pace was pretty darn good as well at 8:25 with a total time of 34:26, I had 2 MP miles at 8:19, 8:17, I finished up with some upper body weight training and some push-ups. It felt good getting back out there, last week was the longest week of my life.

See you tomorrow.

Pretty little hill and then back to the house all via canal road, I stretched alot on the way back just trying to alivate some of the pain and it seemed to help as it loosened up more. My average pace was slower than yesterday at 8:56 with a total time 47:11, I rolled and stretched my ITBand after the run.

See you tomorrow.

My ITBand was a bit of a bother through about mile 6 but after that either it we3nt numb or my brain just ignored the pain after that... My legs were pretty drained this morning where it was super humid but I got her done. My average pace was slower at 8:49 with a total time of 2:30:56, time for a nap.

See you Monday.
