brief summary

Friday
2 easy with Leah
Saturday
6 easy
Spirits were good but after 3 miles weird swelling and pain in left knee.
Stopped, stretched, it felt better. Ran again and it came back.
Sunday
Out at 5am
Ran to go watch the international triathlon championships down by the mall.
Left knee did its swelling thing again. Left hamstring tight and tender. It must be related.

Officially signed up for the Northface Endurance 50 yesterday.
No backing out now I guess.
Time to get serious.

Alright! Signing up for your first ultra! That is great!

The pain, maybe that is just from too much mileage too soon? Maybe just do 25 this week, then 35, then 50, then back into your regular schedule? How many weeks until the event?

When is the Endurance race? Yes, congratulations for signing up!

Pain and swelling? That's just evil.

The race Sept. 19th.
A good amount of time to train.
