8 miles...really
I really did eight miles yesterday. I know what you're thinking, the running calendar says 3x 800m on Aug. 16. I was sick for about a week, so I'm behind a bit. Anyway, I did run eight full miles this time, but not without a good deal of pain, and possibly at the expense of my knees (right knee especially). I don't know if this means my dreams of a half marathon are dashed, or if it means I need to change the way I run, or the way I've been training, or that I need to see someone to help me. Anyway, the Ibuprofen masked some of the pain, but I still really had to will myself through the last few miles to get in 8 miles. I don't know how I'm gonna do 10 miles, let alone 13.1 miles.
