Training
LSR around Worcester
Knee still giving a slight nagging ache as the mileage builds, but far better than it has been. Two week taper for the HM starts next week, so with the reduced mileage it will hopefully continue to heal well.

Easy run around the Severn
Still have a slight nagging at the knee but nothing major. Feels fine after the run with no residual pain which I think is the main thing.

Breezy tempo around the Severn
(7m @ 7:15 pace)
Knee felt fine during run – no pain and felt pretty good afterwards too. Longest tempo run complete, the seven miles felt comfortable if a little slower than I might have hoped. Was a bit breezy down on the Severn today though so that didn’t help.

Intervals (6×1000m @ ~6:15 pace)
Breezy today, but managed a good pace. Knee felt ok, no pain or major twinges during the run – slight ache on the bike ride home but nothing major. Definitely getting better, I just need to make sure I don’t overdo things.

Commute home
Decided to bin the easy run scheduled for tonight. Knee feels pretty much fine today, but an extra day of rest is probably for the best. I’d rather have a really good intervals session, than an ok easy run today, and find the knee aggravated tomorrow.
Will take the rest of the week as it comes, but hoping given how it feels today I’ll be back to normal soon.
