To catch everyone up to date, i've been back training, slowly, since June 20th. Prior to that I took 2 months off of running and spend 4 weeks rehabing with a PT following a not so fulfilling NJ Marathon on May 3rd.
Since Jun 20th, i've been easing my way back into training, but also spending time at the gym and making my legs stronger, with the hopes to get my leg better to prevent any future pains. It's been working slowly and I have worked my long runs on the weekend up the 11.5 miles as of this past week. I'm still not completely pain free, but rather am unsure whether or not i'll fee discomfort until i'm out on a run. It's hit or miss, and my PT is telling me that's a sign or progression. At this point the fact that I can run through it without too much discomfort is all I need. It feels like someone just keeps poking me in the knee over and over again.
Tonight we did our 3rd week of Hill training at practice. Yet again it was another hot and humid day....and it's the humidity that is taking it's toll. 90-97% humidity is not only bad for the hair, but bad for breathing and running up hills at top speeds. But I did it, and I'm tired, but I feel stronger. But very sleepy after a well deserved glass of wine (or 2) with friends.
