I Hate Being Modest…
but it’s for the best. Afterall, when one’s race pace amounts to a 13:06 mile, humility is an easy virtue to cultivate. Today’s scheduled run was 4 miles at pace. A nice warm-up was followed by 2 miles of actual running, 1 mile of walking, and a final running mile. Several observations include a definite absence of sore calf muscles, a longer stride, a more confident foot-strike, and better overall looseness. However, the knees are organizing a revolt. A coup d’ patella is brewing on the horizon. (Probably at the behest of free radicals lurking the neighborhood.) I intend to win the hearts and minds of my rebellious body parts with generous applications of ice and Aleve, stretching, and recovery time (thank you bicycle!).

some images are required as proof … how do we know that this is really happening? perhaps it is all virtual training?
