Rest

My knees feel good today. Maybe I have been too paranoid. I haven't really felt pain, just a sort of heavy stiffness. I'm hoping to run again at least twice more this week, possibly with an outdoor run on track. I'd like to do at least 1.5 or maybe even 2 miles. I hope I am not pressing.

Last night I bought The Runner's Handbook, which I guess is a classic.


I was glancing through it last night and found it very interesting.

One of the causes of knee pain is weak legs, but my legs are very strong. I have been doing squats and leg extensions and leg curls for many years now.

I also bought a Runner's World magazine, which I like more than the Triathlon magazines. It is very beginner oriented. The triathlon magazines seem all about the pros.
