OK I've decided to get back into it slowly and have been terrible about recording mileage (I've probably put in about 75-100 miles over the last month). I ran a few today and felt OK but I'm in Georgia and the heat/humidity/jet lag made me pretty sluggish.

Freeway loop starting from the track. Knee still delicate but I think it will hold now as long as I ice every night. Hopefully it will really heal in the next few months and I can stop messing with it so much.

Running around getting splits for a cross country time trial we ran. The kids are out of shape and the first meet is only 2 weeks away!

Red bridge loop. Felt pretty good and managed to stride out a bit near the end.

Freeway loop. Legs felt pretty sluggish but I made it :).

Freeway loop again. Still sluggish but definitely on the recovery side. On the plus side I'm starting to get enough milage to loose a few pounds and stay hungry all day ... down to ~141.
