Thanks for the advice @Orphia. I guess I should see someone. I hope it's not something too serious either.
On the side, the right side of my right knee is mostly where they pain is
Actually and a little bit on the front but like on the lower bone. But it's mostly on that one side bone on the second picture. It sucks... I'm very worried.
@ccontr11 I've only had inner knee pain (my left front of my right knee), caused by flat feet and my brain/nerves not communicating in tandem quickly enough. I saw a podiatrist and physiotherapist, got orthotics for the flat feet, and did brain/nerve exercises that fixed it completely.
I think a physiotherapist appointment is in order for you, if you're asking for advice. Best wishes, and hope it's a simple fix.
Do see someone. And keep us posted!0 -
@greenolivetree - Hang in there... like other have said consistency helps and also consider that you have been under a ton of stress with your husband's illness, traveling for the treatments and all of that.
@elise4270 - have fun at the gym! YAY! So proud of you!
@HonuNui - Awesome picture! I can't imagine being in a boat going anywhere near it - those people are crazy!
No run for me today - work interfered again! Damn work!!
I am heading to Dallas in the morning for business meetings the rest of the week and taking all my running gear with me of course. I get home Thursday night and turn around on Sunday and head to St. Louis for more meetings Mon-Thurs. Of course it is supposed to start raining again when I get home...0 -
@shanaber Welcome to Dallas!
@HonuNui That's a fantastic picture!

Didn't run yesterday due to rain and a day off from work. So today, I racked up a few extra miles prior to running with the group.

Monthly goals:
Mileage goal: 150
Real Goal: Stay healthy enough to get into the swing of real marathon training.
Today's notes: 3 miles easy was the assignment, so that's what I ran at a 9:34 pace. Tuesday's a re a low mileage day, I'm guessing toget some rest before the speedwork on Wednesday. Also ran 4 strides with 1 min rest in between. Average pace during the strides was 6:22, which felt really fast, yet comfortable, so that was good.1 -
Today called for "60 minutes off-road and hilly fartlek". Been looking forward to this since last week, and thankful it's not rained last couple of days as don't have any trail shoes but was still pretty muddy in places. Had been intending to revisit a childhood haunt of mine that has some great hillside trails, but just yesterday spotted a public footpath trail that sets off near my home that I'd never noticed before so decided to head that way.
My general aim was to go hard on uphill bits, and also whenever I felt sufficiently recovered from a previous effort. I was more tired than I would have liked heading into the run and could definitely feel it. However, tomorrow is a rest day so put it to back of my mind and just enjoyed the experience. I rolled my ankle once, but stopped and stretched it every direction and seems ok - cut my run a bit short after that just to be on the safe side so ended up at 59minutes but that includes about 5 mins on-road at the beginning and end, (though even those sections were hilly)
Run turned out to be 9.5km and included 233 metres climbing, (and descending). It was so much fun though I am now shattered, and every muscle from my core downwards knows it's had a workout! Once my marathon is out of the way I may definitely spend some more time on the trails.
This is the sort of terrain that made up most of my run:
01-Feb: 1.7km treadmill intervals [TM]
02-Feb: 3.4k treadmill [TM]
05-Feb: 6.6k + 5.5k easy
06-Feb: 7.5k tempo
07-Feb: 4.1k easy
10-Feb: 10k easy
13-Feb: 16k MP
14-Feb: 6.4k steady
15-Feb: 7.9k as 10min hard/3min recovery intervals
16-Feb: 6k easy
17-Feb: 9.2k steady
19-Feb: 10k fast (race-sim) + 2k cool-down
20-Feb (AM): 4.5k easy
20-Feb (PM): 7.9k steady
21-Feb: 9.5k off-road, hilly fartlek

Hi All. I am back from vacation. Too much seafood, dessert and of course, wine and not enough running. But a great vacation and a much needed break. I think the low mileage week (only 16!) did a world of good for my hamstring. I did do a lot of stretching, and it didn't bother me much at all on the 10 mile run I squeezed in yesterday afternoon.
Hope everyone is doing well. I missed 277 posts and I am trying to get back into the swing of work, so I will try and catch up at lunchtime!4 -
@Beerrunner- I might be late to the party on this one, but I was flipping through the pages of missed posts and I saw your question on back to back HMs. I had this exact same question last fall when I had two on back to backs weekends and I couldn't decide which to race. I had been training hard for a sub 1:40, which would have been nearly a 4 minute PR, so I knew I would be running hard. I decided to go for it on my first race and play it by ear for race number two. I made my goal by 2 whole seconds! I decided to take the week between pretty easy and see how I felt on race day regarding my second race. When race day arrived, I told myself I would just run the race by feel, but I got caught up in the excitement and knew at the start that I would give it all I had. I ended up beating my previous weeks time by 1 second. So back to back PRs, both of them skating in under my goal time by mere seconds, which pretty much tells me that I was right at the limit of my capabilities for both races. However, the recovery from these back to back all outs was probably worse than any of my marathons, so be prepared for that.
I guess in the end I would say that it depends on just how hard you plan to race them. I was running 40-45 seconds per mile faster than my marathon pace, so it was like a completely different kind of fatigue. The best advice I can give is to play it by ear, but be prepared for a good recovery period afterwards.3 -
@dkabambe Great trail! Definitely go back there
@HonuNui Awesome pic!
@shanaber Thank you for reminding me that the past few months has really been hard and I need to give myself a break
@OSUbuckeye906 Yes, I do think quality of diet and dehydration are also playing a part. I need to get all that back on track. Which I am working on now with water intake and eating healthier foods. I never eat a really strict diet but I feel like I've reversed my 80/20 if you know what I mean. LOL I struggle with dieting now as a runner because my methods of dieting in the past don't coincide with my runner goals.

@dkabambe I have always preferred trails over roads (I know there are many who agree), but can't make it out to trails as often as I would like. As days get longer, there will be more time after work to be able to drive to a trail and run before it is dark out.
Having said that, I follow a professional athlete on Strava who is a trail runner and ultra runner. I notice she does nearly all of her daily training runs on paved trails or roads. In fact, I noticed she has started doing some hill runs about every week in an area very close to where a trail run is held on 4/1 (the same run I'm going to participate in, and I'm sure she is going to do the half marathon on that course). Except, she does hills on the other side of the river where there are paved city streets rather than dirt trails. She is an amazing runner, so I know she is doing something right. I'm just not sure if I understand why she does most of her training on pavement for a race on dirt / mud if there is rain. I keep trying to come up with the courage to ask her; but I worry I might come across as rude. Not that I mean to criticize, but I just can't quite understand it. It might be obvious if dirt trails are too far away to be worthwhile to drive to... but she is driving a little distance to the area with hills about every week. What is another 5-10 min. driving to get to the park on the other side of the river with similar hills and dirt trails? And wouldn't that be preferred anyway? (I mean better scenery...)1 -

Think I may have trouble making my goal this month. Came down with some respiratory crud yesterday and felt gross, so I had to scrap my plan to run. Not sure if I'll be up to a run later today or not. 0 -

It can be easier to gauge progress on road (more consistent for comparing pace, cadence, and other running dynamics) - that would be my best guess.1 -

Really enjoyed my run today, and often get out on the flat trails near me but this the first time I've properly tackled the hills other than in a short burst - usually as a short cut on a point-to-point run.
With regards serious training, I would suspect her road training is probably more about injury prevention. Obviously I'm guessing, but I imagine she does just enough trail work to ensure her stabilising muscles and reactions etc are sufficiently developed, but I imagine she can get strength, speed and endurance work done just as easy on the road but at a lower risk of injury. Just my thoughts, but go ahead and ask1 -
@MNLittleFinn nice job on the PR!
@Stoshew71 nice improvement over the unofficial half!
@MobyCarp "nothing hurts" That is awesome!! it's great seeing your mileage getting back up there after all you've gone through.
@OSUbuckeye906 yes, that looks like some great trails to run!
@shanaber We have a lot of races here that allow dogs (at the back of the pack with the strollers) or are specifically for running with dogs (The Fast and the Furry). I've thought about taking Kody racing but the running induces crapping (for him, not me), and the way he stops on a dime when he has to go, I'd be afraid the runners behind us would trip over him.
@dkabambe awesome PR! Great trail photos! Trail running is definitely addicting. It's harder, slower, and works more muscles, yet overall it's easier on your body and it's great for the soul. And regarding the pro athlete whom @midwesterner85 brought up, I believe you're less prone to injury on trails than on pavement, particularly when you're used to trails. On pavement your running form varies very little so there's more risk of overuse injury. Just my thoughts but I'd be interested why she's choosing pavement over trails.
@BeeerRunner I'm looking forward to reading about how you killed it this weekend!
@KatieJane83 congrats on your first 30, your fast mile, and feeling good!!
@greenolivetree I hope you find your groove soon. When I have a few crappy runs I find what helps me is to go for a run with no plan. No planned distance, no planned pace, just a run to enjoy the run. I do bring my Garmin, but only to track the run later in my log. I start it and (try to) forget it. On the run I spend the first mile or so making sure my form and stride are on target then enjoy the ride.
@honunui, that firehose flow is very cool! I saw some video of it. amazing stuff! I decided to add "See hot lava flowing" to my bucket list.
@lporter229 welcome back!3 -
Tonight is therapy so today is a walking only day. That's fine, my legs feel a bit wiped out from yesterday. Every time I get up from my desk, my knees are stiff. Ooof! I think it's definitely time for a new pair of shoes. My feet ached after last night's run, and that was just on a treadmill.
I'm looking at the New Balance 1080 v7's. Figured I'd stick with what works for me, maybe just go with a newer model.0 -
LOL, apparently I typed the wrong number in my last post because I got the "Your post will appear after it is approved" message!

Hey all, I've been reading and liking posts!
So went yesterday for the MRI on the hip, they also did an angiogram while I was there. Just got a call from the orthopedic's office. Besides the impingment from the bone spur in the hip, I have also torn my labrum and my IT band. I've never even heard of anyone tearing their IT band. So they are trying to making me an appointment at either local doctor at another practice or at Vanderbilt in Nashville for the next step. No matter what it will still require surgery, just more than they thought at first.
She said before you ask Dr. Thommason said you can run if you can stand the pain, but you run the risk of tearing it more. So it would make him happier if you don't run until we get you to the next appointment. I said okay, she said he also said to tell you you have high tolerance for pain if you've been running with this. ha ha!0 -
7.3 paved miles with Kody on Saturday. Enjoyable run in warm temperatures, but unremarkable except for finding a small baggie of pot along the road near the high school.
22.2 trail miles on Sunday. This is my longest trail run, my longest training run, and it capped off my highest mileage week (50.8 miles).
At the trail head I saw another local trail runner I know so I joined him for his 8 mile run on the south side of the park, then ran another 14+ on my own. The first 8 went by fast and easy. After he left I ran the trails on the other half of the park and was surprised at how hard the running was. I found I kept looking at my GPS fairly frequently...not a good sign. The north side has much bigger hills but I shouldn't have felt as fatigued as I was. I had plenty of sleep Saturday night so I thought perhaps it was because of my 7 mile run on Saturday? I even had 600 calories of carbs on my run and still ended up walking several stretches in addition to walking the steep uphills. When I uploaded my runs to Garmin Connect I saw what happened. The guy I ran with is one of the faster runners in the area. I let him take the lead and even though it felt like I was running easy, my heart rate was actually 8 to 10 bpm faster than it would normally be on a long trail run. Now it made sense.
With several days in the 60's, the snow was melting and the trails were wet, soggy, muddy, slushy and icy, which made for a fun time on the trails. At first I tried to avoid the mud and puddles because of all the miles I had to run, but after 2 or 3 miles my feet were soaked so instead of avoiding mud, I aimed for it. I felt like a little kid out there. Some stretches were still rather icy, particularly hills with northern exposure.
On one very steep, very icy downhill I wasn't looking ahead for a safe route to follow and I found myself sliding on slick ice with a thin sheet of water flowing over it. I tried to stop without falling but had ZERO traction and there were no trees within reach to grab. I went down into a squat to at least minimize the pain if/when I fell. As I did so my speed picked up and I had to put my hands down on the ice to keep from wiping out. Picking up more speed I finally sat my *kitten* down and continued to slide as my shorts and gloves were soaked with icy cold snowmelt. Did I mention these trails are shared with horses? No? Well they are and I now saw a big pile of horse *kitten* right in front of me. I was able to lift up one foot, lift up my butt, and do somehow mostly avoid it. By the time I got to the bottom of the hill I was laughing so hard I had to stop to catch my breath. That was FUN! My running partner dead panned, "You know you have to deduct that slide from Strava, right?".
At 15 miles I took off my socks and Cloudventures and put on a dry pair of socks and a pair of Altra Lone Peaks. My wet, soggy feet were swollen and pruned and it was quite a chore to get the dry socks on them. I'm not sure why I thought changing was a good idea. By now the trails were even wetter and muddier than before and it took less than a half mile before my shoes were drenched again.

@skippygirlsmom My goodness! You really did it this time! *hugs* You sound so brave about the whole thing!
@RespectTheKitty As much as you're running, new shoes are probably in order!
@7lenny7 Thanks. I'm gonna try to run tonight and see how it goes.
@snowyne Feel better soon!0 -
Ha ha ha @7lenny7 brilliant!!! Made me giggle thinking of you trying desperately to avoid the horse poo!!
Re: the trail runner - is she perhaps just trying to get some no brain miles in? In that on the trails you have to be more super aware of your feet, but on road you can mostly just plod. Doesn't sound much fun to me though

@skippygirlsmom - You have just shown how much of a badass you are! Hope they are able to get you fixed up soon.
@7lenny7 - I would never be able to pull that off...I'd kill myself! Way to go! Glad it was fun!1 -
With several days in the 60's, the snow was melting and the trails were wet, soggy, muddy, slushy and icy, which made for a fun time on the trails. At first I tried to avoid the mud and puddles because of all the miles I had to run, but after 2 or 3 miles my feet were soaked so instead of avoiding mud, I aimed for it. I felt like a little kid out there.
Haha! Pot! Sounds like a wonderful run.
I think I love your feet!2
