Enjoying the rest

The end of the first meso-cycle brought a welcome reduction in mileage last week. Unfortunately it also coincided with an increase in discomfort from my left knee again so the miles were reduced even more than originally planned as I felt that resting my knee would bring me greater long-term benefits at this stage of the training than an extra 8 mile run.

I’m off to the hospital next week to see about the results of my MRI scan on the knee which hopefully will determine whether there’s a real problem, and more importantly how best to deal with it. For the time being though, I’ve been enjoying the rest and the improvements in the weather.
