Looked like UConn was taking over the game and the kids were in bed so I headed out for a run.  I ran easy over to the track then did 4 x 1 mile repeats at my dream UVM marthon pace of 6:30 with 1/4 mile walk recovery.  Actual splits were a bit too fast:  6:24, 6:24, 6:22, 6:27. I guess I need to learn what 6:30 feels like if I want that to be my mp.  Then I ran home easy.

Total run 8.5 miles.  Knee felt perfectly fine. 

Nike Free Miles: 8.50

Wowie!!! Nice paces.

Impressive speed. Especially after cranking out the 20 miler last week. Are you sure you were really injured the past few months?

Thanks Dale and Andy. Yep, I'm positive I haven't been able to run due to injury. It bit! I have found that although I am just a decent runner, I'm a world class cross trainer :) and that seems to keep me in good shape so I am able to return to my previous running shape quickly.
