Funny that my 50 mile time is faster than my 50K.  Guess that's what happens when your only 50K has over 11,000' of vertical ascent =)

Personal:

I started running in April '09 and run to maintain some balance in my life.  Apparently I have an addictive personality so I figure I should do something positive with it.

Ran around exploring the new hood.  I do like that the area is so open and I don't have to deal with very many traffic lights.  Ankle seems to be getting stronger with every run.  IT Band still buggin me but I think I'll continue to run through it til it gets better; unless it gets worse.  Currently foam rolling about 6 times a day and starting a cycle of ibuprofen.  Hoping for the best.

The goal was an hour and I accomplished that at the JRP.  IT Band didn't bug too much on the run, but when I stopped to walk around and cool off before jumping into my car it started screaming at me.  I guess I'm taking tomorrow off to make sure I don't aggravate it too much.

Didn't get out til late today but I wasn't going to miss my run.  All I wanted was a half hour to see how things are feeling before I do a long-ish run on Saturday.  Things turned out pretty good, just a little knee pain.  My last mile was at 6:30 pace which is the fastest I've been able to go in several months, so that was fun. 

Looking for at least 14 on Saturday so I can round out the week with 30, which was my goal coming into this week.  I won't be afraid to shut it down early though if things go south.

Didn't make my goal of 14 for the day.  Things felt really good until about 3 miles in then my knee just progressively got worse, and finally came to the point where I knew I had to shut 'er down.  Frustrating to say the least.
