The Stillwater Lumberjack Days Races were today, a very popular annual event. I usually run the 10-mile race, but today I didn’t feel like working that hard, one week after a tough marathon. The girls agreed, and we didn’t run the races.
But we did run with the St Croix Valley Runners, 7:00 am at the tennis courts. This time we took “Wayne’s Route,” which crosses County Road 12 twice but otherwise stays away from high-speed highways. I like it much better than the usual route, which has us on 55-mph highways for a couple of miles.
I felt some pain in the right knee, which got better as I ran, and came back later at home. Stairs are the worst, down only, not up.

Woodbury Runners, the usual 6:00 pm run at Colby Lake Park. Actually 6:10 pm - I showed up at 6 the first time and didn’t wait long enough for the others. 6:10 will do it.
Rich and I ran 5.1 miles while the others ran 6.2, but this time in 51:42, eight minutes faster than the last time I ran with Rich. He’s getting strong enough to make me work. I enjoyed this run, still just the right speed for a recovery run.
Spam:
Some assholes have been persistent at leaving spam comments on this blog, which I have to remove, so for a while I will be moderating comments, which is actually easier. If you leave a comment (please do) it will be delayed but WILL show up, probably within minutes, unless it contains a link to an unknown site.
Thanks for your patience.
The bowl is big, so imagine the strawberries! Apple sized. The bananas are regular size, not small.
Don, I am having, as well as a lot of others, the same problem with spam sites from asian countries. Usually some stupid porn or the like...
ReplyDeleteI will be reviewing my comments as well.
Nice to watch a race every now and then (and then to just run easy with friends... delightful!)
ReplyDeleteNot as delightful, though as that yummy looking breakfast!
Gosh the fruits look amazing. Glad to know you are keeping well.
