Last week was a weird one for training. The week started out roughly, with a chilly, windy run on Monday that I shortened because I simply didn't have the right gear. By the time Thursday rolled around, I was so busy with work I had skipped my run on Wednesday. I used the gym at work on my lunch break Thursday to get a quick 4 miles in. I was feeling pretty good until Saturday rolled around. For whatever reason, my knee was just not dealing very well with running. It could be that I was trying to break in my new shoes, or it could be that I was just constantly running hills. Either way, my knee felt terrible and I shortened my run yet again.
Some ice and ibuprofen later, and I was feeling fine. I ran tonight and felt great. So...who knows. I'm just going to go on as long as I can with my knee - I think it should be fine, I really just need to focus on weight training on my days off. I'm not going to read too much into it. I remember having knee pain all through m previous training so this is likely just part of the experience.
