week 2

so much for consistency with the blog! i guess i kind of slacked off with consistency on the running last week too. i ran with the group again last thursday and then bailed on weekend running. my kiddo was sick and my knee was still bothering me, so i decided to rest. unfortunately, that does not seemed to have helped my knee at all. yesterday i did 6ish with my friend tim and then today i ran 9 with bruce and geezer. it doesn't really hurt when i run, it just gets so stiff when i'm done. today it was throbbing on my drive to work and anytime i went up or down stairs. i did switch back to my good old mizunos. i'm hoping the new pair will help alleviate some of the issues. i've been switching back and forth between worn out mizunos and new brooks launches which keep giving me blister issues. i hope the new shoes help. i'm not really motivated to take time off since i just am starting to ramp up. if it was really painful when i ran it'd be a different story, but it's really just an issue after running, so we'll see. maybe a trip to see lisa will be the next step if it doesn't clear up. not sure about running plans tomorrow. i think i may just do a few miles with skylar in the neighborhood before work.

pluses: dinner with laura

minuses: brian and i have been crossing paths
