I guess the last run was just an off day. I'm glad. I was not thrilled about it in the least. Today, we ran 3 miles, right around a 10min/mile pace. Weather was nice. Just a touch chilly, but pretty ideal for running. Things seemed to be fairly normal.
To be honest, I actually expected some knee issues. The last two days I've been up in the attic over our garage getting old insulation (moldy) out, sealing up some areas, and re-insulating. Needless to say, its been a lot of work, and even with knee pads, its been rough. My knees are sore. But, looks like that soreness is limited to the surface, and nothing internal and/or ITB related. There is much rejoicing.
So far, its been all 3 and 4 mile runs. Might try and sneak a 5'er in there at some point, and slowly start some distance building. The ITB will let me know if that's too much, that's for sure. I'll likely have to plan routes that aren't far from the house, with multiple loops, so that if the ITB does bother me, its easy to bail out and get home.
