I had intended to take just Friday off and run on Saturday. Things got away from me, and I ended up taking Saturday off as well, at least from anything too strenuous. I did go on a three mile walk, which was really nice.
Today, I really needed to hit the pavement. 20 more days! OH MY GOODness.
I decided to treadmill. 24 minutes, 2.05 miles. I definitely did not feel as good as I felt the other day, but I felt capable of making it the distance. I wanted to run for a minimum of 20 minutes, and I exceeded that, so I'm happy. My speed never dropped below 5 miles per hour, and hovered at 5.2 most of the time. I did feel some knee pain in my left knee, especially towards the end of the run, so I'm going to have to be careful. I may start an icing regimen, we'll see. Overall, I feel it was a decent effort.
Tomorrow, I have a hankering to do a really good, thorough swim workout, and I have open time while the pool is open. Depending on how I feel when I get up, I may also ride my bike in, we'll see. But I think the priority is the swim.
