Beautiful day for a run.  Sunny, cool temps around 60, nice breeze.  Lots of people out on the rail trail.  Some people running, walking, biking, and even fishing.  Not so many inch worms today.  Saw two mallards grooming themselves in the sun.  My left knee started to hurt a little today but I'm not surprised because I haven't taken my joint lubricating vitamins this week (schedule out of whack).  Gotta get back on those today.  When my knee started hurting I took the  IT band strap off my right leg and put it on my left knee.  Worked like a charm.  Nice to have a versatile feather :)

Fantastic run. Except for the knee junk.

Sounds beautiful. Keep up with those vitamins and be good to your knee. I'm the only one allowed to have an injury this month. Didn't you get that memo? ;-)
