It was a nice day for running.  I didn't have to wear all of the winter gear.  I ran 3/4 of a mile and then streched.  I had a good run.  I flet my knee off and on but it wan't bad.  If any thing it felt tight and not sore.  I ave. about a 8:20 for the 3 miles this morning. 

Appointment with Dr. Tronto tomorrow.

Running update!

I had my appointment with Dr. Tronto this morning.  He took an x-ray of my knee and every thing came back normal.  He examed my knee by puching on in here and there and moving it this way and that way.  When he pushed on my knee where I have pain while running it hurt more than ever.  Go figure.  You puch on a sore spot and it hurts. 

Diagnosis:  patella tendinitis

He is puting my on prednisone and some more rest.  I am to take the rest of the week off and then do a 3-4 miler this weekend.  Then report back to on Monday.  I am happy that it wasn't anything long term and that I will be back to running soon.

Knee Test # 1

Went running at 4:00 pm and ran about the same route I did the day before my Dr. appointment.  I started out at a nice and easy pace about 8:10.  My body wanted to run faster but my lungs said "No Way"!  I felt a little winded but I know that it from the lack of training I haven't been able to do.  At about mile 2.5 I felt a slight twings in my knee but not much.  A the end of the 3 mile run I felt good.  I feel I am on the right track to recovery. 

Test successful  :)
