| Went to St. Pete to talk with some running mates and try to get back on "track." Wasn't planning anything hard, and after about 3 miles of warmup, I decided to do some striders around the track for 800 meters. I stopped to discuss the workout with Sean and company, and decided to do a quick jog to get my hear back up, but I felt an immediate out-of-nowhere pain along the left sifde of my knee. I tried just running it off thinking it like a basketball "injury", but literally couldn't run, jog, and then had to hop on one foot back to the start line. I threw in the towel after a couple more attempts to run and hobbled off to the nearest bar instead.
The acuteness and sudden-onset has me worried.
In other news, I finished another awesome book- "The Martian." I appreciated the math/engineering that coincided with the story line as well as the guy-humor. Well-placed swearing always makes a book better.

| Uh oh, real pain in my left knee. In hindsight maybe it was from turning on the square track during striders? I don't know exactly what I did yesterday to cause the acuteness, but it isn't good so far. Tried running lighgtly... but then just had trouble walking instead. : D

| PM: Sore, but knee pain subsided a bit to where I could only feel it after the run going up the stairs. Progress.

| AM: 2 miles with the group in Safety Harbor. Felt sore, but no pain..
PM: 2 miles. Decided to try to run a little more to A) see if I was sore/had pain, and B) to see if I could handle 13 miles tomorrow at any pace.
I've decided- no pain so I'm going to try it. Race warm-up as normal with striders. Check the knee thoroughly, then if pain-free go for it for mile 1. If after mile one or two I feel incapable, drop back and run for fun. If I am pain free- which I doubt highly- I'll go for it.
My expected outcome is to run the half and just enjoy it- not race it- and hopefully exit it pain free.
