Well, this experiment didn’t last very long. The knee problem isn’t going to get better with work. Time for the “RICE” (rest, ice, compression, elevation) approach. I’ll bite the bullet and stay off it until it’s mostly pain-free, then start back on the bike. I’ve never tried riding in the winter. I suspect that maybe it might be just a bit chilly.
Training Log 11/06/20
Started back running with a relatively flat route. The knee is still a problem but I’m thinking that I just might fix this by running rather than resting. Some things are like that. The contrarian approach. This will be an interesting experiment.
Good morning for an early run. Temperature about 50 degrees, next to no wind and no rain. In fact the next few days in Boston are forecast to be very warm for November.
Distance today: 7.15 miles. Target pace: 9:50; actual: 9:23.
