HUMID! And much warmer than usual.
The slightly longer run sections were nice – came home feeling just a little bit more adrenaline charged. I’m going to have to watch I don’t overdo it and bust up my knee again.

Wk3 run3 _again_. I’m pretty sure I’ve done this about a million times. But then, I’m not really supposed to be running properly on the bung knee yet.
I’m looking forward to proper running, but I’m also enjoying the dawdley pace.

Nice. Knee held up fine, especially after a good rub-down yesterday.
…though now I wonder if I was supposed to be doing run 1 of wk4 instead of wk3r3… ? Whatevs. Slow and steady is _definitely_ my mantra (although ‘gaining without pain’ might be good).
…looks like I’ve gotten all confused with the weeks and done run3 of week 3 twice, but not done run 1 or 2 of that week. I’ll try to remember to do the same run again on Wednesday (ie a third run from week3, as they’re all the same. I think). Doh.

Feeling pretty good, except I’ve just had no energy and been a bit puffy post-run. Not in a ‘I’ve run really fast way’ but in a ‘I can’t get any air’ way. I figure it’s just a cold or bug I’ve been battling.
Either way, the running itself is going fine, but I can’t seem to go as far as I usually do…

How could I get a shorter distance when I’m actually running _more_?
Whatevs. Running is nice. We are still pain-free and it is great. I’m gonna continue with the c25k to steadily build me up to previous levels of orsm and avoid injury. It’d be frustrating, if it weren’t for the fact that both my podiatrist and I are amazed that (with dodgy foot) I’m actually _walking_ without pain, let alone running. I am made of strongs, I think. :D
