First Run in a Long Time

Well we got our email reminder from G-O-A-L-S to register for the Krista which is a 50 mile race at hawk mountain. (one of our favorites).

My plan was to work hard this year and try to get us in contention for a top 10 or podium finish. then Disney happened. My previous post.

So, today I am 12 pounds heaver then the target I set for myself 5 months ago, I am 2 minutes per mile slower.... but the good news is I don't feel any pain in my knee.

that's right, tonight I ran 2miles in around 17:30, Iced my knees after, mowed the lawn and did not feel any pain. I am running in new, lighter shoes and taking preventative Advil to reduce any swelling.

Tomorrow I will go out for a quick road ride, depending on how I feel, I may run another 2 miles
Friday or Sat.

I plan to make the call on if I think my knees can finish the Krista w/o getting injured. (I am sure I can finish the Krista, but a what cost? I don't want to put the Blackbeard and Edge in jeopardy by rushing into a 50 miler.)

stay tuned for updates...
