I did it!  5 easy miles without any knee pain.  I felt horrible the whole time.  I guess I'm still not completely better from being sick, but at least my knee didn't bother me.

I'm glad you have no knee pain. Hope you continue to get feeling better. Did you have a viral or bacterial infection?

From Rhett on Tue, Mar 15, 2011 at 12:55:54 from 74.36.33.52

I'd guess viral since I never took any antibiotics, but who knows.

Smooth did you get you boston bib #? They're posted. I'm 1635, my lowest yet!

From Smooth on Tue, Mar 15, 2011 at 12:58:46 from 67.2.70.168

No, I will go check now! Thanks for the headsup!

From Smooth on Tue, Mar 15, 2011 at 13:09:30 from 67.2.70.168

Mine is 20092, it's my 2nd to the lowest. Of course, it doesn't matter, when I'm at the WAY-in-the-back corral! :)

That is so cool that you number is an elite one. You should take advantage of it and see if you can line up behind Ryan Hall! Gary did! :) BTW, he won the Veteran division in the Munbai Marathon. He's been running a marathon a month this year in Asia, all in 3hr or sub-3. :)

Wow, Gary is amazing. I'm so out of shape I was considering starting in the back, but I may never get to line up behind the elites again. I'll think I'll do that.

glad to see you back Rhett! I hope the pain stays away for good!~
