Today’s long run was another 12-mile run.  For the first time, I did it under 2 hours….just barely.  I took 1:59 for an average pace of 9:55 min/mile.  It feels great to to be seeing this kind of progress.  On my previous runs, I would be dragging in the last 2 miles, usually running them in the 11-12 min/mile range.  Today I was able to keep a mostly consistent pace.

My knee is still holding up.  I felt a very slight soreness, but it was less sore than other parts of my body during the run so I’m not worried about it.  I think I’m just paying much more attention to my knee because of my past problems.

I’m looking forward to another great running week this week!
