I went with Aubrey this afternoon for a leisurely 4 mile run down 1585. It was only his second run since Rocky and he was feeling pretty stiff. He ran the Cotton Patch 8 miler but really had a hard time with his left knee which is pretty disconcerting. We kept a 9:30 pace and about a mile from the truck his left knee started acting up again. We'll just have to figure it out I guess. Aubrey is a Clydesdale which I know would make running far a little harder. Hopefully it's just a stressed ligament or tendon from Rocky.
I need to start picking up the mileage this week in preparation for the Grasslands. I want to run at least a 15, a 20, and a 30 before I go. Shouldn't be a problem.

- Simple! I love to run! It keeps me sane.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, a handbottle of water in one hand and a chocolate GU in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, shoes smoking, and you screaming..."WOO HOO, What a Run!!"

Bummer on Aubrey's knee. Start ramping up for Grasslands.
Goodness, a 30? Glad you have to do it, and not me!
