Morning arctic circle w/ 2x track warmup. Took it reasonably fast - 7:31, 7:29 and 7:05. Knee hurt lots from the get-go and got steadily worse the whole run. Yuk. Angry face. (Alchemy 131.9)
This afternoon, I went to a physical therapist to see what he could do about my knee's issues. He basically said a similar thing as the trainer yesterday - my lower hamstring is inflamed and causing tendinitis there - so he 'therapy-ed' it, did some exercises, massage stuff, stretching and such. He taped my feet and my hamstring and told me to only run until it hurt, then stop, stretch, ice and be done for the day. But he says it's ok to start doing some cross training on a bike, so I'll do that to at least get some aerobic work in. At practice, I ran the warmup and halfway through it was hurting lots already, so I just finished up and didn't do the rest of practice. (45, 90) (DST 185.7)
