(rest day)
Knee hurt all day yesterday after the run. :(
Sunday Nov 22, 2009 #
Event: WCOC Wooster Mountain
Running 3:00 [2]
shoes: 2008 VJ Integrators
Jogging a bit before the start, trying to decide if I should try jogging the course. The knee felt a bit weird (stiff?), but didn't hurt, so I decided to go ahead and start off the course jogging.
Orienteering 1:05:31 [3] 6.0 km (10:55 / km) +335m 8:32 / km
shoes: 2008 VJ Integrators
Local event at Wooster Mt, red course. Jogged what I could, walked the rocky ups and downs. Knee was ok for the first half hour, but started giving me trouble during the second. Navigation was mostly ok, although I missed the best routes on two controls, both times going straight when I should have gone around. Lovely woods and beautiful, sunny weather!

Cross-Training (stepper) 40:00 [1]
Knee didn't bother me today more than usual, and legs were tired by the end, which felt great. I looked at maps from some spring races in Sweden. They had my old routes drawn in, and I found myself thinking how easy it would be now for me to avoid making some of the same mistakes. I could do so much better now!
Strength Training 10:00 [1]
Stretching 5:00 [0]
Note
Had the MRI today, which took over an hour. Results hopefully on Monday!

Cross-Training (stepper) 30:00 [1]
Left knee hurt some towards the end, but not enough for me to stop. Doing level 8 for more a minute was tough - would be nice to get to the point where I can do level 10.
Strength Training 45:00 [1]
Very careful with the hamstrings, seemed ok.
Stability 10:00 [0]
Stretching 5:00 [0]

Summary:
Oct 30: Hurt my hamstring (again)
Nov 1-5: hamstring hurt during easy runs, left knee started hurting (probably more pressure on it due to changes in gait?)
Nov 6: went for an easy run, left knee really hurt by the end
Nov 7: knee still hurt, quickly got worse during training.
Nov 8-11: knee hurts unbearably when going up/down stairs, no training
Nov 9: had appt with orthopedic - scheduled an MRI
Nov 9-16: sick with some type of cold or flu, feeling awful
Nov 16: knee doesn't hurt in general, but certain things can cause quick, sharp pain. also, step machine caused swelling.
Nov 17: biking was ok.
Nov 20: MRI
Plan: Do cross-training and strength training as long as it doesn't make injury worse. Do map-study at home. This is the most important part of winter training anyway.
