Happy Trails

It is Monday ... and I set out in the pre-dawn for some more LA Roadrunners training.

Again, I tried running without the brace and my knee felt pretty good. It is not perfect by far; but, it is better. I did still have some off and on coughing; but, overall, things just seemed better somehow.

I did run slower than target; I think partly just wanting to enjoy things going relatively well and now having something go wrong from trying to push it and partly just being a bit low on energy and wanting to keep energy reserves up for Saturday.

Today was only 40 minutes (even less than the Sunday light run!). I took M1 route basically and cruised around a dark Santa Monica and briefly entered Los Angeles. The threatened rain did not come; so, it was pretty easy. I was going along pretty well with only traffic lights causing breaks in momentum and time lost.

I got back after an uneventful, but still pretty fulfilling run, and enjoyed two tostadas. I think this may become a pre-run and post-run tool for mid-week training!
