3 miles on the TM at 5:30am because I couldn't sleep. ;)  Might as well get the run done for the day!

Abs with 3x1 min planks

My knee doesn't give out quite as much and it's not quite as tender to the touch on my tibial tuberosity.  So hopefully it just eventually goes away!

My tibial tuberosity was tender to touch last winter when I did lots of TM running.

I wonder if your knee giving out may be due to ligament adjusting to hormonal changes? Just a wild guess.

Hmmm...that makes sense, I didn't think of the treadmill! I've never had this problem before, but I've also never ran this much on the treadmill. Thanks for the insight! Yah, that may be it on the hormones... hopefully it goes away soon!
