Did a normal run this morning maybe 2 miles … knee been hurting like a motherfucker out of nowhere the minute I got home, and it’s even worse now. My body might have just decided “ok that’s it”

That sucks. I believe you can recover and get back out there.

Did 5k today for the first time in months in a meh 29:00.

5k in 38:42
215 elevation
Very cold

What were you wearing?

Did a 10km run this evening.
First 5 was alright, then a massive slump
3km 13:37
5km 24:31
7km 36:29
10km 57:28

Someone suggested one of these hands-free leashes to me today.

Meh, I dunno.

Talked myself out of going back to back days. This will help get me on an every other day schedule for awhile until my recovery time gets more better.

are you likely to run away and never return if you're not wearing a leash?

I was going for a fast out and back with headphones on today and I felt a presence at my feet about a mile in. I looked back and there was this sweet mama pitbull keeping up with me at an easy gait. She ran with me for nearly a mile then cut over to the cemetery on my route. I started pondering her story when I got to the turnaround and by the end of the run I'd guessed that she lost her owner, a runner, and just wanted to spend some time with them in spirit before saying hello at their final resting place.

5k in 27:50. Felt really good. I think it’s my PR 5k for a non-race.

This could be a music video or something

You are very fast and seem like a genuinely nice guy.
