L Knee, Other
2015-01-02 – 2015-01-17
Grade: 3
Knee tightened up at mile 8, (8.33 pace) on a really steady road run. Pain comes in behind LHS of knee and shoots up to IT band area of hip? But it tightens up so much I could not lift my leg due to pain to run on it; rest helps (obviously) but it still returned after 7 hours of rest and just walking? So. I'll see what Sunday brings after a day of rest - well sort of, will be at the County XC Champs (watching).
Same knee I had a meniscal tear and subsequent surgery in years ago :-(.
Not convinced it is cured but it has not re-occured again but then again I've not run 8 miles yet which is when it kicked in, so next weekend I'll try to get up to 7 -7.5 miles if possible - assuming the short, 4.5m mid week runs go okay. Kim's hunch seems to be correct - great is great and reassuring, :-)
