I ran 11 easy miles today, but my right knee really hurt. I think that it is my IT band that is causing some trouble. I am doing some special stretches so hopefully it will die down soon.

12 miles of crosstraining (stationary biking for 35 mins.) to allow my IT band to heal up. I went to the sports therapist here at school, and they showed me some recommended excercises and stretches to help heal and prevent this injury from occuring again. As for my workout, I tried to keep my heartrate as close to 180 bpm as I could for 30 mins, which turned out to be quite a task. I had to put the resistance on high had to pedal like a madman, but I think that I got a decent cardiovascular workout. After a few more days of this, I think I will be ready to and run again!

Another day of crosstraining. I rode the stationary bike for 20 mins, and the elliptical for 30 mins. My knee seems to be feeling much better, so within a day or two I can resume running. In all, though, I got a decent workout.

I rode a stationary bike today for 35 minutes and covered 22 miles. In all, I got a decent workout. My IT bands are feeling pretty good.

I decided to give the knees a test run today to see if they were doing ok. This test run slowly progressed into something substancially more, ultimately resulting in ten miles. My knees felt fairly good, though, despite the unexpected addition in mileage. I think the stretching and rest allowed them to heal pretty well. I still could feel them today, but nothing near Mondays run. I think that I might get another long run in tommorrow.

I ran 11 miles today at easy pace. My knees are feeling very good, which enabled me to run this distance. I ran through some sections of fairly deep snow, and battled the cold the whole time (15 degrees), but I guess that is just winter running. I feel good, mainly since I still got over 30 running miles in this week despite all of the knee trouble (three days of cross training).
