Wasn't sure how the knee would do today. I wore the knee strap even though it hasn't hurt my last two slow runs. Me and my work/quilting/running buddy, Linda...
I felt pretty good but it did start to hurt before I hit two miles. I just kept it up at 4/1 intervals.
Tried not to go too fast but couldn't help trying to push my limit with the knee. Ended up with a finish of 35:11. No PR but better than I thought the knee would allow. Won second for my age!
But the knee was screaming for ice by the time I got home. Maybe an epson salt bath in a bit....
Congrats on your 2nd place age group win! I won a race mug in a 5K I ran while on vacation in Pensacola years ago - one of my favorite race awards because I can use it!
