09/12/2010: Ran from Evans Gulch to the basin off (North) of the road to Mosquito Pass. About 40 minutes with 700' vert. Pain moved around. Reminiscent of last spring. No tendonitis in left knee though. Just pain everywhere else so I am not worried. 3.0 miles.
09/14/2010: Evans Gulch 1.5 mile loop. 3B to 38 back to 3. Really enjoyable run. I wanted to continue running but worried about overdoing it. A good decision I feel. :20, 1.5 miles, 200' vert.
09/15/2010: ran down to the Fish Hatchery and back up by way of the longer (eastern) section of the Hatchery's Nature Trail. Ran in my Fivefingers. :15, 1 mile, 100' vert.
09/17/2010: Ran to the first switchback of the Mosquito Pass road from Evans Gulch parking area. Was able to get in the "climbing zone" once more. Awesome longer runs are ahead! :50, 4 miles, 1100' vert.
Totals: 9.5 miles, 2,100' vert.
The Tendonitis seems to be gone. There are residual pains that I seem to remember from last spring so I think they are mostly psychological. My strategy for now is to run and walk at a reasonable level and wait for that one-week period that I will not be able to run (I don't know when but it is coming. I can feel it.) to recuperate fully.
