8 on the JRT. Feeling pretty fresh and ready for a mileage bump.

6 x 2:00 on / 1:00 off. Averaged ~5:45 pace. Added 2 x 30s sprints at the end.

The pain in my knee is definitely creeping into the background. I plan to keep the volume where it's at and see if it will stabilize. Reach out to the ortho and see if he wants to do another injection. I've been through so much therapy on this thing -- if it needs surgery I'd rather leave no question about it than keep playing the game of backing off every time it gets sore.
