50 minutes on the bike at the gym. I tried to get my heart rate up, but my legs get tired out a lot more quickly than my heart rate elevates when I bike.  My legs will be burning from going fast but my heart rate stays down in the 120s.  I guess I just need to get the legs more accustomed to biking.  I ended with 12 minutes of abs.  I will not attempt a run today in hopes of getting over this knee pain that's been nagging me since UVM.  Legs aren't sore from Ragnar, which is a plus.  I just got to get this knee feeling better and I'll be good to go again.

2.26 miles @ 6:29 pace.  I decided to test the knee out on a run and turns out it's not any better at all :(  I will likely not attempt running again until next Monday.  If it still hurts on Monday, I will have to go get it checked I suppose.  Frustrating stuff.  It seems like every time I get into pretty decent shape this left knee takes me out.  I missed 8 weeks in Jan and Feb this year with this same knee, and I had this knee scoped in college and was out for a couple months.

35 minutes on the bike followed by 10.5 minutes of abs.  I don't think the knee is going to be ready for running next Monday, I can still feel it even just biking.  So annoying, I want to run!
