What a difference a day's rest makes! On Thursday I had a knee pain that made me stop in the middle of run. I spent yesterday nursing my right knee, but even so I wasn't sure if I was going to able to run today. So I started timidly, but I felt surprisingly good. So I decided to pick up the pace after 10 minutes, and to my delight I could maintain that fast pace for 20 miles.
I was determined before I started the run that when I feel any sign of pain in my knee, even the slightest one, I would stop. And I did have a trace of pain in the same spot as I had on Thursday just after I hit the 20-mile mark. So I stopped immediately. I would have liked to put up a few more miles, but that will be too greedy. The most important achievement today was that I could run pain-free again.
Today: 20 miles
This week: 71 miles
