yeah, funny how doing something crazy like signing up for a marathon will really make you get those miles in!

Weirdly, I had some shin pain start in my left leg after lunch today. It felt perfectly fine before that, which I find very weird. I'm trying to not take any chances and am resting and icing it tonight. I've never had shin splints so I wouldn't know how that feels but my pain feels mostly like a bruise would feel. I'm hoping it is something more like a bruise.

Welcome back, Jo! How was your trip?

I registered for a half marathon in February, so I'll need to start pushing up my weekend run into a long run. More mileage, yay!

+ 3.5 on a hilly course at a 10 min/mile pace! It was so hard getting up this morning---the dark and the cold (it was like 65 degrees!) Wah!

But I feel good now!

Knee felt a little wonky today. I am hoping it is just one of those things and not an indication of something more serious.

Welcome back, Mavis. Hope your knee will start behaving better!
