Comments:
My third-to-last day of work went by quickly today, which was nice. I got back to the hotel and went to Target to find a cho-pat strap for my knee, but they didn't have one. I did a bit of jogging in the parking lot without pain so I returned to my room and went for a run without tape or a strap.

I kept it really easy at first, and the multitude of stoplights down Pioneer Parkway during rushhour gave me ample opportunities to stretch in the first mile+, which I think helped. Zero knee pain, ever, today, as a result.

Ran into the Pre Trails and did the prairie loop then headed north on Garden Way and back to Harlow. It generally sucks to be staying in Springfield, but at least my place is along one of my running routes.

I was gonna eat at Subway for dinner but I saw a commercial for a special at Sizzler and I couldn't pass it up. I'm really disappointed with my nutrition this summer, but...seriously...I'm so bored out there that all there is to do is eat. Seriously. No friends, no family, no studying or homework, no one to grab a drink with or run or anything. So I read the newspaper and eat. Yikes. Can't wait to get home...
