Well it is Happy Feet time again. I was able to run 5.36 miles today with the help of a few hundred friends.
I ran in the Big Bird 10k today and my knee actually felt okay at points of the race.
I didn’t try and go out racing, so it was different to be really in the back of the pack. I just wanted to get in my ‘long’ run!
This race goes over I-696 twice, which wasn’t usually isn’t an issue but the downhill portion was unforgiving on the knees.
I think I was a little annoying to a few people, since I chatted the entire time I was running.
I even heard the ‘..you have too much energy to be running this slow’!
Of course once I was done my knee grew in size but there wasn’t any sufficient pain.
The other major point is that I even ran on Saturday, so that’s two consecutive days of running.
Yay!
