Training Log Archive: Johnny M

Stanley Park. Still can't run, so went for a long walk. One hour around seawall and then two on the trails.

Looks like I'm out of commission. Can barely walk.

C • WTF!? 6

Knee loosened up a bit this evening, so went for a brisk hike. As long as I didn't go too crazy on the hills, I could move fairly pain free. Running is not possible, but hoping things will improve quickly over the coming week. I'm losing out on a big training weekend, but life goes on.

Surprised by how quickly I could walk once I got into a rhythm. Might be good to throw in a few more power walks over the coming weeks to get used to walking quickly.

Fell down hard at 1:45. Left knee landed on a rock, so I'm bloody and bruised. Right hand also scratched up, but bottles broke most of the fall. It took more than 10 minutes before I could jog gingerly home. This may be the end of my West Coast running adventure, so no Lynn Headwaters tomorrow.

Sunnyside.

Lynn Headwaters. Amazing place to run. Was supposed to have nearly three hours here, but traffic (accidents, construction) left me stranded on the highway for nearly two extra hours and I had to pick up in-laws at airport for 8. Will return on Saturday for long run.

Easy road run in the evening.
