This just in: It's still cold out.

After playing in my city league basketball game last night, my knee was only slightly tender to touch and the pain I had been feeling in flexion wasn't present. Things were looking up, at least for running--we lost by 20 in the game.
This morning the scheduled workout was 6 miles, with the middle 2 miles at a Short Tempo pace, which I decided, with the help of the McMillan Running Calculator, is 6:30-6:45 for me. Considering the weather and my knee, I decided it would be a 4 mile run, with the middle two at a faster clip. This morning's temperature in Plymouth, WI is somewhere between the-hairs-inside-my-nose-have-frozen and I-better-get-inside-soon-or-my-you-know-what-is-in-serious-trouble. I took off for a one mile warm-up (ha ha) and clocked 7:00 on that downhill stretch. I could feel the knee at this point and was considering turning around, but by the time I was into the second mile, it was fine and didn't cause me any more trouble the rest of the way.
Just checked weather.com...it's -6 out. I don't put much stock in "Wind Chill," but for those that do, it's -26 with that.

My splits:
1: 7:00
2: 6:42
3: 6:36
4: 8:00

Good to hear you're feeling better.

I bet you'd get a kick out of Kentuckians during this "cold" spell. Its 22 degrees out, and the way people are bundled up, shivering, and looking pathetic you would swear we were in Siberia!

Can I steal your splits? LOL

Dude, that weather is i-n-s-a-n-e!

Great splits. You are going to have to take care of that knee, but mine is sore right now and there is no way I'm slowing down either. I think it is weird with knees, but mine seems to feel better the more I run. I'm more than a little bit of a freeze baby so I was really impressed with you running outside in those temps.

Take care of yourself and the you know what. Minus 11 here, not sure about the wind chill but at this point, does it really matter? My God, man, you ran in this??

I guess you had to be fast -- otherwise you might have frozen to the ground!

It is truly motivating when you are running more for survival than training!
