It wasn&#8217;t hurting much today, so I seized the opportunity to go for a run. I started off strong for the first 3 miles, but I started walking before I even hit the turn-around spot at 3.2 miles.<\/p>\n<p>My first three miles:<br \/>\n9:27<br \/>\n9:17<br \/>\n9:58<\/p>\n<p>And yet I didn&#8217;t hit the 5k mark until 30:13, which means that last 0.1 mile took more than a full minute. That&#8217;s some slow walking. I splashed some water in my face and over my head and started jogging again.<\/p>\n<p>I jogged most the way home, but I took it easy on the big hill and walked up most of it. I started jogging again just before I hit the top and then jogged the rest of the way back, except for the red light to cross Carmel Country Road. I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s possible to hit that light green.<\/p>\n<p>My knee wasn&#8217;t feeling great by the time I made it back, so I may have to take it easy tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p><iframe height='405' width='590' frameborder='0' allowtransparency='true' scrolling='no' src='https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/77766618\/embed\/bdc8954618a3e4fa1cc8f30a49cc71e0e3b9b654'><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I twisted me right knee during a lazy flip-turn while swimming on Friday, so I rested it all weekend.
