Sun: 15.3/1:09:02/4:30/Mach 11 & BF Great run from dad's to Erin's. Got in a few solid miles of BF on the beach at low tide. Really felt great to run on the beach, feet were a bit numb towards the end, but still loved it.
Mon: 18.5/1:21:21/4:22/XC Zoom Needed to get in a solid run in terms of distance, but this didn't really feel great from the get go. Legs felt pretty tired from early on, but wanted to push through. Really surprised at the pace, although I think the garmin measured it slightly long. But I think the combination of the pace and having tired legs made my left knee hurt for the last 5k at least. May be combined with the fact that this was only my second time running in these shoes, but it was a new pain, and one that has persisted now. Fucking Nikes?
Tue: Rest, travel to Mass.
Wed: 10.5/1:05:26/6:00/Treks My first real trail run! Left the place we were staying and found a trail right into the woods along a river. Followed it up into the hills, did some bushwhacking, and some walking because it was so steep. Got up to about 430 meters (250 total gain) according to the Garmin. The downhill was great because it was quite technical in terms of rocks and roots, actually quite amazing that I didn't bust an ankle because of all the leaves hiding stuff. Just a great feeling to get out into the woods, and I was super satisfied with the feel of the Treks considering the terrain. Did about 6K of road after getting out of the woods, and the knee was pretty tender towards the end.
Thu: 6.1/30/4:55/Mach 11 Knee started bothering me about 2k into this run, so had to turn back. Depressing.
Fri/Sat: Rest. Wanted to rest the knee, and was busy with vacation stuff.
Total Mileage: 50.3K Not looking good for Tsukuba.
