Light run today followed by 50 crunches and 50 obliques. Several weeks ago, 2 miles did not feel like a light run! I have been feeling pretty tired lately so it's good to take a slight break, but still keep up the exercising. Knees did ok today but there was definitely more tension in the right knee. Looking forward to Saturday's 3 leg relay:

1st leg = run as long as possible; 2nd leg = take shower; 3rd leg = get a massage 

Hopefully the 1st and 3rd legs will both last one hour...

Good job with your consistency and what appears to be a definite steady improvement. The first few weeks or months of a new training regime are always the most difficult, so keep up the good work!

If you are experiencing knee or other leg pain, I would suggest substituting cycling or swimming for several of your weekly runs. Also, your pain may be exacerbated by running on consecutive days. Just a thought.
