a barrel of this

Probably went out a little too fast but, the first mile was all down hill to Ocean Beach. Knee felt a little stiff afterwards but I also felt like I could have run longer, which is good because I am supposed to tomorrow.
I tried for the first time to use the Garmin Forerunner 201 to […]

Ran back from the auto shop after dropping Fritz the car off. Here is a map of my run thanks to my Garmin Forerunner and GPS Visualizer. More on that in the future. My right knee felt better before the run but going down hill was painful.

Fast/slow intervals today. Trying to get on the half-marathon training schedule. Felt okay. Left knee is still going to fall off.

Drove over to the Marin headlands to run out and back on the Tennessee trail. There are some rocky patches so it was good trail running experience. The views from the top of Mt. Tam are amazing. You can stand at eye level with the top of the Golden Gate Bridge. Oakland, Angle Island, downtown […]

Okay run to the Ferry Bldg. The Garmin missed the first mile of this one as well. I only know it was a mile because it was just around 7+ minutes. Received a bunch of funny looks at the Ferry bldg. scene. Whatever.

The GPS unit didn’t want to work today and even when it did get signal it did not accurately record my milage. I think I only ran around 2 miles but up and down the hills of Potrero after dropping my car off on 10th and Harrison.

My right knee still hurts. Hockey didn’t really help that yesterday and lateral movement is definitely when it hurts the most. But I got through ok. First day running with the North Face Vapour Light sneakers. Felt pretty solid.

Ran with new spenco insoles and my new tsoks which I am very excited about. The insoles helped a little bit with the heel pain. Interestingly the heel hurts more after running than during. My left knee continues to bother me during running. So, still injured but trying to keep going. I’ll probably just cycle […]

Painful run. Left heel and right knee still feel awful. The knee was more of a problem. I played hockey yesterday which probably didn’t help. Perhaps cross training tomorrow and more ice on the bottom of the left foot.

Right knee and left hip are sore as is the bottom of my left heel. Stopped to walk a bit through the Ferry building for a minute or two. That helped ease the road back.
