Comments:
Ran over lunch with Jeff today, doing his "4 mile" (mayyybe 3.75) loop. He's a pseudo-distance runner with the early high school/sprinter mentality of, "let's run hard, then finish harder on a normal training run". Whatever.

"Hard" today was 6:40 pace which, with my knees as they are recently, was plenty hard enough. My calves were feeling better, so there wasn't much of an issue keeping up with the "dead sprint" Jeff likes to do over the last 100m. :|

Overall we averaged maybe 6:50 for this run, which ended with said sprint, followed by a couple dry-heaves by Jeff. :) Ha. My legs might not have felt great, but even in my out of shape state, the hard finish was nothing to write home about.

Overall the knee "came around" a bit, but that damn medial side seems to be getting worse. FUCK. The only solace is that it's 95% different from the patellar pain. So I got THAT goin' for me...
