Well my goal was to run far enough today to break 10 miles for the week and since I'm not planning to run while on vacation I pushed it.

And thankfully I did it. The first 3 miles went by fairly smooth the next 2.5 felt a bit worked but the last .25 I decided to kick it up. I first put the treadmill to 7 mph to test my legs it felt good so I kicked it up to 8. Thats when a powerful runner's high kicked it so I cranked it to 9 and went for it. I made about .2 miles with that pace when I felt a little pain sneaking into my knee, no pop or anything just a bit of pain. I didn't like the pain in the joint so I brought the speed way down and coasted to finish out the lap.

Overall a very good workout and I think my legs are ready for some rest.
