The last assessment of my knee was perhaps a little optimistic, and the next day aches and pains had returned. Feeling rather fed up I initially decided to give it another week, but occasional niggles, along with a general apathy towards running brought on by this continuing injury and the awful weather lately, meant one week became three. Today though I was determined to venture out despite the 23º heat, and I’m over the moon to say the knee felt completely fine after two miles – no niggles, no aches, nothing! Fingers crossed it really is fixed now, and I get get on with training for my rapidly approaching half-marathon in October.
