First run since the marathon. I have gone back to the first pair of running shoes I owned, Nike Free 7.0. I have read the a more minimalist shoe can help runners knee, I am going to test that theory.
I only went 2. something miles to test my knee in the shoes. My last marathon trainings I have treated almost every workout as a race and I tried to set a PR everyday. This time I am going to focus on getting a good base, then do some speed work, all while praying that my knee will hold.
I dont know the exact distance, but it was an easy pace, around 7:50. My knee felt good. I got home and immediatly put ice on it to help with swelling. |
