I took more time off than I was planning. Laziness always seems to get the best of me. Last wednesday (2/25) I walked with my kids to get some ice cream for them. My knee was killing me from the very first step, so I decided to take some time off from running. On Sunday I walked about half a mile and my knee felt good, but I was lazy so I gave it more time. I played basketball on Wednesday and it felt great, no pain at all for the 2 hours or so that I was playing.

Today after only 12 minutes it started to hurt again. Not bad, but I could feel it. It would be off for 5 minutes then on for about 7. This continued until I changed how I was landing on my feet. I normally land on the ball of my foot toward the big toe side (between big toe and 2nd toe). I switched to landing on the ball at about the 4th toe. The pain didn't come back at all while I was doing that.

Heres to hoping I can figure this out and not have a crappy spring of training.

Went for a short walk today. My right knee is being a baby. I am going to go get a cortizone shot and an exercise bike. Hopefully I can get my knee better and maintain my endurance the best I can while riding an exercise bike. Lame

I got my cortisone shots in both knees about 10 days ago. I played basketball 3 times last week without any knee pains or issues at all. Back to running today. 6 easy miles to start off. Tomorrow I will go longer. I will take a 3 or 4 weeks to try and build back up to 70-80 miles a week. Hopefully the knees will be ok and I can have a good spring/summer of running.
