I woke up with a big knot in my stomach this morning and I was not sure what effect it would have on my run today. I ended up being pretty much okay until the very end and the bathroom started calling. I pushed hard on the hills today especially the last few tenths of each hill and also tried to stop as few times as possible. I ended up stopping for two very short stops to cross the street and one while we changed our route - maybe 45 sec. Overall a pretty good run but my knee is bothering me more and more. Hopefully my new shoes will come soon.

Ave Pace 8:57 (felt much faster, time to recalibrate my ipod+)

Happy Running!

 

PM:  20 min swimming laps in the pool.  It is getting so much easier as my kids swimming is improving but unfortunately they still fight so our swimming ended early, but 20 min is better than nothing.
