First run in two weeks after recovery from flu/pneumonia. Breathing was OK. Left knee, not do much; felt like patella tendon not happy. Got through it, slowly, in about 10:20 average. Probably will take a week to get back in the swing, then try to do something race-specific for the half in Bentonville for about two weeks.

Then Jen wanted me to run at the gym with her, so I did. Very slow, very easy. She did four laps without stopping, which is real progress. Total of 3.17 this afternoon. Nothing like not running for two weeks, then doing a double...

Another easy run, legs a little stronger than yesterday. Able to negative split and get the average pace down to 10:00. AHR still running high, whether because of being sick or warmer temps, do not know.
