Weekly Report:
I accomplished about what I wanted to this week. I decided early in the week that I was going to shoot for 28 miles this week instead of 30. I will take a recovery week this week because I will be teaching in Mexico for the week and it is difficult to run long distances, but I will still get a few runs in and really focus on my stability exercises and core work.
The knee is still there. Nothing worse but not any better. It has stayed the same for a long time now so I'm beginning to think this is the new normal. I guess I will just be running with a little pain for the next little while. Nothing too terrible, but it will be nice when it's gone. I haven't been great about stretching and rolling the last few days so that may be contributing to it also. I still think the origin is my IT band so I'll spend next week really stretching it out a lot with a little run every day.
