Slowly but Surely

I ran 11.5 miles on Saturday with Carol, Denie, and Benny.  It was my longest run since the 60K back in mid-November.  My knee held up, but the rest of my legs didn't fair so well.

Today, I did my favorite stairs 27 times.  The goal was to be able to walk up the stairs 20 times.  I actually walked up the stairs 19 times and ran up the last 8.  I think I will be ready for the Empire State Building Run-Up if I can do one or two of these stair workouts each week.

I must have watched about 9 hours of football this weekend.  I figure my 11.5 miles and my stair workout, combined with all the laying around on my sofa watching TV kind of balance each other out.

If I do well in the Empire State Building race, I will be grateful that I live near these stairs.
