This week did not go as well as the others. I was really busy and not feeling to well so it was a pretty long week. There was one day where i ran outside and i really need to continue to run outside because i am use to running on the tredmil now and it is way different running outside compared to running on the tredmil. I have always had knee problems when i run. I had surgary on one of them and i was wondering if there is any way of strengthening them? I have noticed the more i run the better they are feeling but when i am done running they just throb and feel swollen. Sao any advice? This week i plan on really pushing myself because i didn’t do so good last week but this is what i did.
Monday: I took the day off.
Tuesday: I ran about 30 min on the tredmil easy.
Wednesday: I ran 3 miles on the trdmil at race pace speed.
Thursday: I took another day off. ( I wasn’t feeling to well)
Friday: I ran outside about 2 miles with some hills.
Saturday and Sunday: I didn’t run
So this was a really bad week as you can see but i think my body needed a little break. I am back on the schedule now and going to work hard this week.

Hi,
Don’t go overboard this week. A lot of people react this way when they are sick and try to play catch up–you’ll just end up getting yourself more run down. Gradually get back up to speed and listen to your body. We still have time before the half to make a lot of progress. Because you stayed somewhat active, you didn’t lose anything.
