800 meter workout

After a little rainstorm, Ish and I were the only ones to show up for the run club tonight.  We ran four 800 sprints; at least that's what Ish calls em.  I thought I ran pretty pathetic - though he compared our runs from two weeks ago and the improvement was there.

After a four day rest, the knee feels fantastic!  I felt no pain last night in a nice little 3 mile run (which despite feeling like I took it relatively easy - I still came in with a 7:20 pace :)   Today's "sprints" made me a tad uneasy, but the knee really held together (sometimes I'm actually concerned it literally won't)

And it is official.  I've run 50 miles again this month.  That's five in a row.  Now bad for having two 4-day lulls.   Obviously the 4 mile runs played a factor.  

It looks like my next run will be another small, school-sponsored event - the Cruise 5K at Shrine High School in royal oak.    Can't wait!
