Had alot of excuses for not running this morning but I ignored all of them. That is an improvemnet for me. Left knee still achy and legs are sore. The run went really well after the first couple of miles.
My left knee is causing me concern. A little painful to walk down stairs. It bothered me for the first couple of miles but started to feel alright as the run progressed. Legs had an overall feeling of soreness which I think is a good thing at this point. Hopefully it means that I am working an appropriate amount.
Had a very busy morning so I had to get up early to get the miles in. Out the door at 4 and just plugged along. The miles seemed to go by quickly. I think it was because I was still asleep. Other than feeling a little heavy, the legs felt good.
Started with 3 easy miles then 5 at LT then 2 easy to cool down. Since the tempo miles took a little extra effort on Saturday I wasn't sure if I would be able to get through this run. Started the tempo run and the pace felt very good. Held steady at 6:38-6:40 throughout the run. Effort felt solid and but never felt like I was pushing too hard. Can't figure out why running less miles at the same pace 2 days ago felt like so much more work.
