Comments: Went out and did the beach/hill run again today. Got a heck of a lot further in the hour than on Saturday but that is probably because I know the route now. It's easier when you know where to save up your energy and where to spend it.
The start of the run was unpleasant. I really doubted if I was going to be able to finish. Yet, somewhere around the 35 minute mark it was automatic. I found myself at a good pace churning it out. And I felt strong enough to go another half hour but I didn't think that would be too wise.
The knee was a little sore yesterday afternoon and this morning. Nothing specific, just not happy. Stretched out real well and didn't have any problems with it during the run at all.
