August!

8/1/09 I ran for about 70 minutes-on the treadmill so the mileage is not accurate on that thing. After about the first 30-40 I had a stabbing pain in the middle of my knee-fingers crossed that nothing else is going on. I stopped and stretched and started back with a walk and jogged again. Didn't have that same pain again but it was pretty scary. I didn't get so tight in my it band that I had to stop which is good. I was wearing the pro-tech strap but I don't think that would cause another knee pain. I don't feel any worse today I am basically using that to judge-do I feel worse or the same. If I feel the same will keep going and try to work my mileage up. I was going to do the Leesburg 20K next week but I think that is too much too soon but the week after I am going to do a half. I have to be able to run 20 in September.
