| Paddled around Green Lake. I tried to keep the effort level up, and went at a decent clip. My arms felt quite tired afterward, and I'm sure my lower back muscles will be stiff again tomorrow.
My left knee hurt at various times throughout the day, during mundane activities like weeding and unloading the boat from the car. |

 | Running - Trail / Grass (trail) 28:00 [2]* 3.23 mi (8:39 / mi) +145m 4:44 / km | |
| ahr:145 max:164 slept:2.5 shoes: Brooks Cascadia (lime green!) |
| Running on very wet, muddy trails to put out and pick up course markings for the NWTR event at Soaring Eagle Park. My lousy knee hurt on and off--I suppose from yesterday--even though I did just a trifling amount of running. Arrrg! Maybe I should get an MRI, although the Team Trials will probably have come and gone before I can be seen by someone who grasps the situation fully and can prescribe an appropriate course of action.
The pace/distance and average HRs are just guesses. |

| I went for a walk in and near Tolt-MacDonald Park. The Tolt and Snoqualmie Rivers were tremendously swollen and running fast. Some farm fields and roads nearby were flooded, and roads in the floodplain were closed. I had it in my head that I would look into paddling on the Snoqualmie, but after taking a look at the muddy and debris-laden waters and the powerful, chaotic currents, I lost the urge to put my kayak in. This was one of those situations where the line between adventure and stupidity was pretty clear to me. The waters were calmer in the flooded areas flanking the river, but it would have been a hastle to wheel my boat over to them, and I would have had to worry about hitting submerged objects and debris. |

Weight is clothed and without shoes, after a huge breakfast. |
