2/6 Run

Another run with Jim around the lake. Slow, again, but better than last time we ran it clockwise, probably because of fewer walk breaks for his feet. A little drizzly, but comfortable once we got going.

6.44 miles in 1:13:39 (11:26/mile). 142 avg bpm.

Left knee bothered me a bit in miles 4 and 5, but seemed to work itself out. It's making me paranoid, because this weeks mileage is near the best mileage of last training cycle, when things fell apart because of my knee. The goal for this week is 37 miles, and next week is 41 (ignoring a fluke 47 mile week last cycle, my best weeks were 40.5), and I'd like to hold that mileage for a month or so. I figure that gives me pretty sweet base to start spinning up for the RnR Seattle in June.
