AM - 10 miles w/ Andrea (bike). Horsepark and tempo loops. Knee felt best on flat pavement. Its still a little swollen from the fall, but almost back to normal size. I spent most of the day yesterday with my leg elevated and an ice pack wrapped around the kneecap. That's pretty much all I have planned for today as well. Boring way to spend the majority of the weekend (especially compared to last weekend in Jackson) but what can you do? At least the Kindle is getting a workout!

PM - 5 miles w/ Andrea (bike).

Yikes! I hope you dodge the bullet on the knee.

Think you'll be ok for tomorrow?

Oh yeah... really cool statue of Frank Shorter here in Boulder. You know you've made it in this life when you can see statues of yourself while you're still alive.

I came down straight on it, so I'm guessing its just bruised and swollen, which is better than had I twisted it. Kotter knows I'm not running STG so I don't know why he took me out :-)

I'm confident I'll be OK tomorrow, especially considering its a progressive effort so I can sort of ease into the faster portion. If it bothers me, I'll just hand Kramer my watch and run in easy. I'm not going to force anything... but I'm also not panicking about it.

Guys who are alive and have statues of themselves: Shorter, Michael Jordan, Larry Bird... yeah, elite company!

Actually, maybe its not such a big deal...

Jay Johnson linked to my blog on his Sunday Morning reads this morning.

Andrea just pointed that out a few minutes ago while she was reading Jay's Sunday morning reads.

Good thing you didn't say anything stupid!

Very cool Rob - name dropped by Coach Jay - celebrity status.

Good luck with the knee Jake! Sounds like it's coming around.

From seeaprilrun on Mon, Aug 05, 2013 at 01:13:26 from 205.172.12.210

Sounds like your knee will be okay--hopefully no lingering effects!

From Rachelle on Mon, Aug 05, 2013 at 10:10:06 from 159.212.71.77

Glad you are okay Jake. I hope you enjoyed some television yesterday. :)

I read a whole book instead! The one Andrea talked about today. I'm trying to convince myself Kale is a type of candy now :-0
