I'm not entirely sure why, but I am very, very tired today.

Got up to run, and running wasn't happening.  I ran 10 yards and had to stop.  I walked, stretched, and tried again.  My right quad was tight and my left knee was feeling wonky. 

I managed to run 1.5, stretch just a little, then run another 1.5.  My stiffness was going away, but I kept hearing a little nagging feeling in my knee and decided it wasn't worth it.  So I went inside and did 30 minutes on the elliptical to finish up 1 hour.  My agenda said 7 miles. not sure if I'll try to make up the missed miles or not.  It's my "easy" week, and I may just bag it.  Too much invested now to have an injury sideline me.

It's farmer day at school, so I get to wear my overalls.  I love farmer day.

P90x Kickboxing.  Knee still a little sore on the outside.  Only when I do certain things...like run.

On a totally non-related note: Look what the squirrels did to my American flag:

Rotten Rebel Squirrels!  You know they were just chanting, "The South will rise again!"

knee felt ok once I got warmed up.  Progressive run. Avg was 9:07.  2 different black & white cats hanging out in the bushes on the side of the road.  I was running through the hood- did a 2 mile loop 3 times.

Once again, knee felt wonky at the start, but once I got warmed up, it didn't bother me. 

slow-recovery run (from what?)

But then after my run, the knee starts feeling wonky again.  Probably going to just take off the weekend instead of doing my 7 miles.  It's a "rest" week anyway.
