Easy run.

5:31 am, 27°F, 59% humidity, winds calm.

My knee felt okay but not perfect on this run. I'll just have to see how it feels the rest of the day. If it doesn't bother me too much during the day, I'll run again tomorrow.

I could hear a car alarm going off somewhere for about the first half of my run. The sound carried well in the early morning quiet.

I saw stiff-arm old man running when I was driving to seminary after my run. I thought he only ran on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but I guess I was wrong.

:) Glad you got out. Hope the knee cooperates with you today so you can get out again tomorrow. ART was a success, then?

From Carolyn in Colorado on Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 10:22:23 from 24.8.167.243

Yes, I think the ART helps.

I am glad you were able to run today. Hopefully your knee feels good the rest of the day. I would have been upset if the car alarm was my neighbors.

I'm always impressed with how loud things sound in the early morning. There's a train that runs a little ways away from where I run, but in the morning it sounds like it's right behind the bushes.

I'm glad your knee didn't hurt too much and you were able to run. Hope you're able to get out tomorrow too.

Nice work on the run and yea for little knee pain. Keep up the good work and smart recovery!

From TBarlow on Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 15:18:06 from 216.194.124.36

Isn't it funny how sounds and smells (breakfast cooking - laundry - car fumes) are always super sensitive when you run! Keep on recovering!

Glad the knee is trend toward improvement.

I hope you gave stiff-arm old man a good ol' stiff-arm wave.
