Today went on a nice easy run with the McCombs boys. 6 miles counting warmup and cooldown. Probably around 7 min. pace I forgot to keep track. I need to get a watch but I hate wearing them. Behind my knee still feels funny right in the middle but I think it will just take some time to go away as long as I'm careful. Knees felt fine. Just felt a little sluggish and not very smooth but it will get better as I get more and more in shape and get some more miles in.

Ran Goulds Rim trail. Quicker than I wanted to, but most of my trail runs are because I have to get the turnover going to miss all the rocks so I don't trip. Nice though. About 33-34 min. ish. I really need to get a watch so I don't have to go by my car clock:) Anyway, was quite sore from work and from 2 hours of full court basketball RM style yesterday, but after a sluggish and stiff start it was alright. upper calf/lower ham problem keeps bugging me but it gets marginally better every day so that's a good sign. Anyway, I'm going to hit the sack. Real tired after sorting and stacking about 500 pallets today. groan.

Easy 4 miler with Johnny. recovery pace. Didn't even feel my little problem. YAY! I think it might be getting better. Anyway, felt good except for I was a little cramped because I ran right after dinner. Mwah mwah. But it was good.

moderate pace almost 4.5 mile run which felt alright but I haven't pushed at all for awhile so it felt a little weird to go faster than normal but alright. also a couple of warmup laps and I also did a couple of 100 M strides/accels just to get out on my legs and see how it felt. Didn't feel my calf/hammie today either so that is great.

Angel Height's loop plus 2 laps warmup. I really need to find some other 5 mile loop. I'm sooo bored with Angel Heights. Anyway, felt really slow the first 4 miles, then the last mile I got rollin' and felt really good--too bad it wasn't sooner...but it was overall a good run. I'm not looking for too much speed this week so it's alright if I go slow. But I think I am starting to get back into shape for mileage little by little. Oh, and I think I am pretty much over that injury or whatever it was...will start easing into more mileage. I was being real careful this week and especially last week to not overtax it, but I've tested it out a couple of times the last couple of days and it feels a lot stronger, though not 100% yet. But soon....
