Another tm run today, I did something called repeats, and it really kicked my butt!! I decided I would be better off running 3 or 4 miles everyday on the tm for a few days to make sure my knee is feeling good, hopefully by Fri or Sat I can do a long run outside.

good job, peg. i'm glad the tm is okay for your knee -- hopefully it continues to improve.

Glad to see you're back on it! Wondered where you were. The back of my knee hurts every now and then also, but mainly hurts while I'm sitting - it twinges pain and when hurting it's bad when driving. Based on other blogs with similar issues, I think it's my hamstring. I guess it connects from the quads down to the top of the calf muscle, right through the back of the knee. When I feel around behind the knee I can feel the string and pinpoint the pain. Is it similar to what you're feeling or something completely different?

thanks allie! i hope so too!

russ, that does sound about right, I know you told me about that in st.george, so I have been watching to see if that was the prob. it gets really stiff when I am driving, and unfortunately i drive about 7+ hours every day, my bus doesn't have a lot of leg room, but i have found a spot that i can squish my foot into to stretch it out and i think that has helped.
