I took advantage of the beautiful fall weather and ran at 2:00 pm. 6.1 miles around Murray and my knee felt the best it has in weeks! 7:10 AP.

Quick run this morning after Kaden went to school and before I had to drop off Lily at preschool. It was really warm! My legs felt tired and my knee was a little upset so I just ran 4.5 miles at a slow pace. 7:30 AP.

Rainy, cold run through Holladay. Nothing too exciting. Just trying to get my knee back to 100% and taking things easy. 7:30 AP.

I kind of felt "normal" today which is promising. I posted on the wrong day on Wednesday because I actually ran 6 miles yesterday, 4 today and I'll attempt a longer run tomorrow. This will be the first time in weeks that I'll run 3 days in a row. Fingers crossed. :) 7:15 AP.

I met Emily at Cottonwood Complex and we ran a few laps around the horse park. It was nice to run on the dirt and grass but it was not nice that every dog owner had their dog off leash!! A few dogs got in our way and one dog almost charged Emily. We left the park and ran along Murray Holladay Road to Walker Lane then down Spring Lane to 1300 East and back to the cars.

I was a little nervous to run with someone this morning. I was nervous that my knee wasn't going to hold up. But I'm really happy that I was able to run 10 miles with little pain! Thanks for the great run Emily! :)

On a side note, Emily and I talked about getting all the girls together on the FRB and going for a run sometime soon. I think it sounds like a lot of fun! We'll keep you ladies posted :)
