My first 20

I ran 20 miles on Saturday. That is the farthest I have run yet. My pace was 9:57, so it took a little under 3 hours and 20 minutes. I felt okay except for the side of my left knee. It started to hurt around mile 17. I think it’s a mild version of ITBS. So, I’m going to take a few days off to see if it helps in the healing process. Part of the problem may have been the roads in AZ. They are quite a bit slanted so it’s difficult to run on a flat surface unless you run in the middle of the street or run on the sidewalk.

On a side note, it is very nice to be home. We were greeted by a little green tree frog that decided it wanted to come in with us when we went out on the balcony. JR chased it out. Definitely a Florida greeting.
