Knee trouble

Last Saturday I ran 6 miles and stubbed my toe, hurting inside of knee. I took a week off, and ran 6 miles today on the trail. The knee is a tad stiff, but good to run. I attract young people when I run now. I counselled a young guy on becoming a heel striker, and ran for a while with a young woman. I invited both to join the YPOM club. Trying to bang myself into shape for 10k July 4th in Frankenmuth with Sean and Jerry.

Down Brewster

Did run/walk 3.75 miles, not in shape.

Mary Boes 5k

I laid out the course for the 5k race, and stayed at the turn around on the Clinton River Trail until done. Saw big snapping turtle. Back felt fine. Picked up trash on way back, except for a diaper! Then I went inside the OPC and got my credentials for Senior Olympics Triathalon on Sunday. I then figured out how to swim in the OPC pool with sign in, OPC card in locker, shower. I swam 75 meters, trouble with breathing. After swim I took a 3 mile bike and went home for lunch. Sunday, I attempted my first tri. I swam 100 meters in OU pool and was so tired I couldn't swim another 300 meters. First DQ in over 200 races. I received permission to run and bike on course and cheered for contestants and thanked the volunteers. Mini tri - 100 meter swim, 6 mile bike, and 2.3 mile run. Need to practice swim.

3 miles

3miles down Brewster. Back hurt.

Stoney

Sat. I biked 9 miles and ran 3 miles. Too hot for more than that. Sunday I went to the beach, but when I stood in the water my legs turned numb. So I ran 3 miles. Back better and running more, walking less.
