I went on a run/walk with my dog and halfway through ran up a hill a bunch

-Warmup (2 lap jog, abs, pushups, static stretching, walking drills, warmup drills, 2 laps of striders)
-15 minute run
-2 laps of 5 by 1 relays
-2 laps cool down
-Hurdle drills and static stretching

-Warmup (2 lap jog, static stretching, abs & pushups, walking drills, warmup drill, 2 laps of striders)
- 2 1000m w/ 3 min rest
I was supposed to do 3, but I started limping on the second. My knee wasn't in pain, but my doctor said I shouldn't run when I limp, even if I feel fine. It's weird, it's like my body just refuses to move normally.
- 1 200m, 1 400m, 1 200m
These were shorter so I was able to lengthen my stride without my knee hurting. I'm really happy because I haven't been able to do that in forever.
- 15 minute cooldown run
- Weightroom
- Static stretching

-Warmup (10 minute warmup jog, abs, pushups, static stretching, walking drills, warmup drills, 2 laps of striders)
I bailed on stairs today because my knee was feeling borderline good and I wanted to be able to do the whole workout.
-40 minute run
I was able to do the whole thing! Granted, my friend and I took it easy, but I was still able to do it. I did walk for a few short periods of time to give my knee a break, but I ran 95% of the time. Also, I think I'm developing shin splints, but I ran on the grass which felt a lot better.
-Cool down & Static stretching

Track meet today, but I missed 2 practices last week for orienteering so I was ineligible and didn't run. I stuck around and helped out though.

-1 hour of warmup & other stuff (2 lap warmup jog, abs, pushups, static stretching, warmup drills, 2 laps of striders)
-12 minutes of cycling
So my knee is not feeling too good after how hard I pushed it this weekend, so I made it through warmup, but then took it really easy today just because it didn't want to make it worse. Tomorrow there is a meet which I am ineligible for, so hopeful these 2 easy days will give me enough time to reset so I can go back to building intervals.

Ran Green B. Overall I only really made 1 mistake, but I was slow anyway. Going from 9 to 10 I discovered a bubble in my compass and spent around 2 minutes trying to determine if it messed it up or not (I think it's okay, but we'll see). Then I saw an unmapped ditch which I thought was a mapped one and backtracked before I caught myself, wasting about a minute, before I finally found 10.
Other than that I was clean, mainly because my knee was bothering me so I wasn't able to ever really run. It's just not used to 3 hard days of work. I'm still building my intervals and I hope that before long I'll be back to normal.
