4 miles in my daughter's hood.  I originally planned on 6 but decided 4 was enough after I was reminded how hilly her neighborhood is (and yesterdays workout).  Hello hamstrings!!!

10 miles on the rail trail.  Got out early so only 3 cars there.  Saw deer on the trail and when I stopped to take photo mosquitos honed in on me ... aaargghh ... run!  Talk about motivation :0

I felt great on the run then at mile 6 my knee started acting up.  Luckily I wore my sleeves today so I could make a makeshift brace.  It worked!!!

At the very end of my run some people from a nearby gym were doing sprints at the end of the trail.  It just happened that a guy lined up with me perfectly and I couldn't resist a little race.  I hope my knee doesn't punish me for it tomorrow, but it sure felt great today!
