Month: June 2022

A rainy, humid morning. Welcome to summer. Good training weather.

The knee is “annoyed” but I think it’s just tendons and ligaments not 100% healed yet.

Today’s run was a 4.37 mile mildly rolling route with a short, steep hill (10%) at the end. Pace was 9:48.

Another nice morning for an early run. Cool and clear. Probably won’t be this way tomorrow.

The knee is OK. I put side pressure on my leg while sleeping/shifting around and it woke me up a bit. It’s not bad, but I notice it. Caution is the “name of the game” these days. Pay attention to everything.

Today’s run was a 4.21 mile mildly rolling route. Pace was 9:49.

Nice, cool morning for an early run. Woke up a bit stiff after hours of yard work yesterday. Whatever. Time to train.

The knee feels good. It’s spooky. I almost don’t want to believe it.

Today’s run was a fairly flat 2.18 mile route. Pace was 9:30.

Decided to “run” an errand as part of today’s run. It’s essentially the same distance to a blue mail drop as I had planned for today,. A little multi-tasking is seldom a bad idea.

Knee wasn’t bad. I think the discomfort I’m feeling (I wouldn’t really call it pain) is just tendons and ligaments being stressed after being injured. Time will tell.

I found a room in Anchorage for the Runfest in August that’s around $500 total for the three days. Much better than the $1,400 that I had booked.

Today’s run was a 2.16 mile route with some climb. Pace was 9:49.

Day two of the early morning run/bike rehab. Still feels OK going into the afternoon. I did notice that there was a bit of irritation/pain on the run when going downhill. It wasn’t bad at all, and I didn’t notice anything on other parts of the run or on the bike.

Today’s run was a 1.5 mile hills route. Pace was 9:52. Bike route was an 8.05 mile rolling hills route. Pace was 4:59.

Starting a combined running/biking routine. Try anything to get going!

Today’s run was a short 0.64 mile flat route. The ride was a 4.2 mile mildly rolling route. Running pace was 9:51.
