6-17-2010

3.2 mile (5k) circuit tonight. Weather conditions were mid-70s and sunny at 8:30pm. Overall I walked 3/10s mile warmup, jogged 2 miles, walked another 4/10 mile, jogged the remaining 1/2 miles. I felt good with this run and was able to control my breathing while maintaining a steady pace.

I'm beginning to feel like I am making strong headway, but my legs still are suffering the remainder of the day after the jog. Tonight while jogging down the hill, my left knee began to hurt considerably and I ended up walking because of the pain. After hitting the bottom of the hill and the road leveled out I was able to continue my jog. I will have to monitor this and possibly change my route to avoid hills on the return leg.
