Long run out Glendale onto Route 66 at 8:08 overall pace. Two sets of 5 x one minute accelerations at goal half marathon pace to build some strength. 6,7,8 uphill were tough but definitely fulfilled the purpose of the workout. Some weakness issues on the outside of my left knee.

Tried a recovery run today and the left knee is protesting strongly. Some pretty significant pain on the outside of the knee. Cut the run short obviously and now I'm icing. We'll see what if feels like tomorrow, but I'm pretty worried right now.

I've been working fervently this past week to stretch and strengthen my IT Band. My knee was sore when trying to run Monday and Tuesday. Ice and NSAID and rest Wednesday through Friday. I've started with a foam roller and hip strengthening exercises. I tried on the bike path Saturday and it's still a bit sore, so I decided not to push it. Another day off tomorrow and then I'll try on the treadmill Monday.
