Four miles on the indoor track at the club. The weather was mild enough to run outdoors today, but Sweet Pea has a cold so we three decided on a short run at the club instead. No pains, no problems, stairs don't bother the knee any more. It must be time to ramp up the mileage a bit.
Splits: 9:09, 8:50, 8:49, 8:52, total 35:40, pace 8:55.

Nice run this morning with the St Croix Valley Runners. We meet every Saturday morning, 7:00 am SHARP, at the Northland tennis courts, for a run of five miles. Today was a chilly one, 10 degrees or so, but no wind and the sun rose as we ran. Must have been almost a dozen of us, bumping along at various speeds. I started with George and Gauss, then caught up to Dave, and finally finished a little ahead of all of those in 46:20, for a pace of 9:16. It’ll do. No pains - apparently I’m about recovered from the A1A marathon.

Instead of running today, I enjoyed a nice high-energy walk with Sunshine and Sweet Pea. In the Stillwater Bubble, probably about three miles, in 45 minutes. I had a slight pain in the right butt, where Doctor L says a hip joint will hurt if I ever have hip trouble. But it went away. Another remnant of Sunday’s marathon I suppose. I hope.
Very enjoyable walk. It’s a masterpiece!

Recovery Run. I intended to run three miles today, but stopped after two because the left adductors were complaining a little, and because I was starting to feel rather clunky. Little problems after the run:
- Those adductors;
- The left lower back hurts - almost feels like a kidney but I’m pretty sure it’s just muscular; and
- The right knee bothers going downstairs, for the first couple of stairs.
The run was in the Stillwater Bubble, just loping along on the artificial turf. A great place to run.
Breakfast, mostly organic. There's oatmeal under there somewhere:
