A Winter Run In Shorts

Because of being sick and a few other things, it has been 11 days since my last run. I could definitely tell too. Tonight's run was a great temperature for a winter run (52 degrees) but it didn't feel very good and my right knee really hurt the entire last mile. It has been since last March that my knee hurt that bad. It was very discouraging. 11 days off doesn't seem like much but it sure took it's toll on me. I guess I'll have to build up slowly AGAIN.

With all that said, a bad night running is better than a good night in the hospital, right? So yeah, I am thankful that I have the ability to run and I felt really good and refreshed after my 5 miles in 44:14.
