Notes

COMMENTS: 40 and light rain. Tested lame leg. Started at about 9 min pace to judge leg. Could feel some pain behind the knee. First mile ok but started getting bothersome. Walked some then did a fast stride. Hmmm.... fast stride was manageable, felt good!? Slower pace (9 m/m) hurt like crazy. Walking had no pain. So, I walked some and did long strides until some discomfort appeared then walked. Repeating this enabled 8 miles with 9 min/mile average. But.... the running parts were all in the 7's. Go figure. Just need to get that last "kink" out that shoots the pain at the lower pace stride length. Late morning did 1 hour hard spinning with avg HR at 153. Then stretched while legs were rubber. All this really helps. We're getting there! (tick, tick, tick.......countdown!)
