Mon-AM: 6.5 mi (:55)
Bridge Which Must Not Be Named (2x)
Greenway (GW) to Mississippi trail (MT). It appears that my legs (specifically the left one) are still on the mend from last weekend's racing endeavor. Experienced some behind-the-knee tightness/soreness ~30 mins in that cut this outing short. Odd that nothing seemed out of the ordinary yesterday. Nevertheless: Amazed afresh that, even though I'm surrounded by city concrete, a mere 25 minutes by foot gets me here:

Tue-AM: 5 mi (:54)
11th Ave. (2x), Hennepin Ave. (1x), Merriam St. (1x), Stone Arch (1x)
BCS run w/Glen, Steve, Tom, and Justin. Enjoyed having Justin back for the first time since the passing of winter. Running five wide now almost feels like a true team. (Or what I imagine a team to feel like as I've yet to actually be a part of one. Maybe some guys would be interested in the 4-person, 50k team option at the 2013 version of the Trail Mix? We would all run a 7.75-mi loop at the same time. I should probably time that question well. #NotetoSelf) Probably should have taken the day for rest, but having missed last Tuesday I didn't want to make it two-in-a-row (which really is closer to three weeks once you add up the days on either side). Habits form quickly, you know.

Pike Island (2x)
Fort Snelling S.P. Around the Pike Island loop, with Ashley! Enjoyed the shadowy greens and browns this morning. Left knee felt fresh for ~35 mins, but started to tighten/weaken up again afterwards (esp. on some inclines). Can't imagine it's more than a strain of some sort, but may be taking some more time off next week. Good for end of semester deadlines, I reckon.
Totals: 16.0 mi (2:39, 9 bridges)
