It was all going so well!

It was all going so well with the half marathon training. Did 10K about 2 weeks ago, it was time to press on...did 11k this morning. I failed to heed my own advice and continued to run with much pain in my right knee - so stupid 😳I could kick myself but it hurts too much 😬 Ah well, fingers crossed ice, elevation and rest will sort it out....but it feels like the ITB again. So dull. But heigh ho, such is life. Happy running everyone, happy Christmas and a happy new year too πŸŽ„πŸŽ‰πŸŒπŸŒŽπŸŒπŸŽ„

Oh no Gran4z, but if there’s ever an excuse to rest up then now’s a good time to do it. Hope you’re back out there again soon and that you have a happy & restful Christmas despite this πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„

You can get to enjoy your carbo loading for when you are off the IC.

Rest up and try to fit in some core exercises.

Get well soon!

Good plan Katnap...been enjoying the carbs. So want to run - really difficult to be sensible and wise 😬.

Sorry to hear this. Try a support bandage too. I can’t run without one on my knee - ever

Good plan. I do use physio tape all the time, but not sure I'm placing it correctly every time I apply it. Think the knee support will be added for 2moro's little outing!

Happy running and happy 2019 πŸŽ‰
