| Easy run today wit Wac attack! I lifted weights afterward and did a lot of core strength drills afterward. I need to build up some core strength. I would not be surprised to know that this whole injury stemmed from a weak core and building up mileage too quick. I'll work on that. | | Add Comment |

Alright, my first decently aerobic run in a while. I ran out 4.5 with our team before turning. I ran back a bit faster because my knee felt great. It sort of "numbed out" after 5 miles. Overall pace on the way back was 5:45ish. Wetmore seemed pleased. He said that I am waiting until at least late March to race again. This makes me happy. I have some time to get rid of this knee curse and gain some actual fitness. I talked to Mark Plaatjes yesterday at work and he indicated that I tore a bit of my vastus medialus. That would explain why it is taking a long time to heal. It does seem to be making some progress, though. As long as I can run hard at outdoors I am fine! Haha my profile is now posted on the CU website! They should put my picture up soon!

| Easy run again today. This knee trouble is persistent. It is getting a bit better, but is taking a long time to heal. Slow running does not seem to worsen the condition much, but I want to put a move on it and get in shape! I guess I just need to relax. This has been my longest ever injury, and it is wearing on me :( | | Comments(2) |

| Magnolia road today. I took it really easy on the downhills to not hurt my knee and hit the uphills a bit harder. | | Add Comment |

| Easy run today. Alright, I am at a decision point. I need to decide whether I should take time and get this this knee thing finished. It is slowly getting better, but I know that running on it is not helping the situation at all. I think that cross training may need to happen again. This may hurt my track season a bit, but you can't win them all. I realllly want that regional qualifying time in the 5k, but I will have a lot of upcoming opportunities. All I am doing right now is prolonging the problem. | | Comments(2) |

| Ok, so this was the worst move I have made in my running career. I went out with my old coach on his long run and my knee didn't really hurt. By the end it did hurt a bit, but was not too bad. I was not thinking at all. I will rest again tommorrow and see how it feels. Bad choice Nick... | | Add Comment |

Really easy run today. My knee felt amazing!!! I was pain free, and could barely even feel "it". I also swam 30mins. Wetmore told me that he is going to put me in the 10,000 meter at conference in May assuming my knee is good. I really need to get rolling, but not until this knee thing is fully gone. I am going to keep swimming even when I begin hitting full mileage to really help increase my aerobic fitness. I am going to need it come May! | | Add Comment |
