Back on the Trail :)

A good running week, specially with all the misgivings I had about ever getting back. Sometime last week I decided that it was either taking the pain or quitting. I chose the pain, and Im happy to report that strangely the pain seems to have taken care of itself. Not that its gone away, but I can pretty much keep my old pace without too much discomfort.
This week I did
Tue: 4 miles at 7:45 Treadmill
Wed: 7 miles at 7:45 Treadmill
Thurs: 6 miles at 7:45 Treadmill
Sat: 10 miles on the lakes - met Dy and Greg and ran a half loop with them. Met Forrest too. The run seemed to get better as it went on. AND NO PAIN just a little niggle at the end
Sun: 6.8 (Calhoun and Harriet) at nearly 7:20 pace. My mentee really pushed me. We finished with about a 150 yard sprint. Felt really good.
Now it remains to be seen how my knee feels. My guess is that its gonna get no worse.
We plan a 5 K next weekend and a half marathon the week after.
