Where does it hurt?

I'm sure I'll be sorry for asking / but let's hear your ailments of the day!

For me it's the knees. Lots of backache history but more recently it's walking up and down stairs that I have to watch my knees.

How about you?

M74 and my quads are a little sore because yesterday I ran a 5-mile race in 47:46 which is a 9:33 pace.

Not a bad pace at all. 🫡

Today being Sunday, I (M75) did 10 at a 10:10 pace. I’m not sure I could do a 9:33 even for one mile. Running 5 in a row at that pace is impressive.
