Notes
  • Body: Been very frustrated with the way my knee behaved the last time I ran.  Today was different, and I believe Dr. Chris helped shed some new light on what has been going on with the knee.  The hamstrings are actually the primary stabilizer of the knee, but phys. therapy has not been doing any hamstring work.  By stretching the quad and activating the hammys prior to my run, it went much more smoothly.
  • Workout: Went well.  I think I did too much quad stretching before the run, and it started to hurt slightly during the squats.
  • Run: Felt pretty good during this, which is encouraging.  ~1.25 miles run today, a total of 3 on the week.
