| Shakeout 4 miles today. Everything felt pretty good, although I was still sore from yesterday. It was good to get the kinks out and get the blood flowing again though. Pretty humid weatherwise, I did manage to sneak my run in during the 30 minutes where it hasnt been raining today though. |

| 9.1 miles today. Was thinking 11 was possible, but had some GI issues late in the run. I'm more than happy with what I did today, 7:09 min/mile. During my strides afterwards, i tweaked my knee somehow. I had some pain every time i planted. I hope its nothing too serious, and I dont think it is, maybe just sore from the pounding and high mileage lately. Anyways, got a compression sock on it the rest of the night, hopefully itll feel way better tomorrow! |

| Uh oh...My knee is done. I cant even run on it anymore. Today's workout was going great. I felt fine during my first 2 mile repeats, even the 3rd one was good (splits: 5:33, 5:32, &5:35). On that 3rd and last one, my knee really started hurting. I finished the repeat and began my cool down. However, on the cool down, I couldn't run without intense pain on the outside of my left knee. I had to walk home. Each time I tried to jog, it hurt bad. I am out of action for the next 2 days indefinitely and most likely the weekend, which sucks because I had a special 5k race planned which I was running for a kid in my fiance's family who has cerebral palsey, not much I can do if I cant even run though. Very depressing day for sure, and Im not happy about how things transpired. I hope its just minor ITBS and not a ligament tear or something. A doctor visit is in my future i think. Hopefully it'll heal wiht some rest and ice. |

| Went to the trainer today, they said the knee was probably an IT band issue and would be resolved with rest, a cutback in mileage, and ice. So thats the plan. No 5k this weekend, not sure about 5 mile race next weekend. I have a goal 10k three weeks out (May 16) that I will most likely shoot for. In the mean time, i need to do everything possible to help heal this leg. |

| Forced rest day again as I wait for my knee to heal. Ive been loading up on ibuprofen and ice. If it feels good tomorrow, i may get 2-3 in. Chances are, ill take tomorrow off too, just to be on the safe side. |

| Got out and tested the knee today. Felt really good through the run. I could have easily ran like 15 miles today, it was just that nice out and I am rested enough after my two forced rest days. However, I figured id play it safe and stay in recovery mode for a few more days. Overall, I'm glad the pain wasnt that bad today and I feel comfortable enough to resume training. Broke out the new shoes today, im sure that helped too. |
