Long easy run today in the rain on the East Lake Samm trail. My knee PFS is pretty bad. I may have to take some time off, but we'll see.

I'm going to try a cycle of Vitamin I along with reduced training to try and knock this patellofemoral syndrome down. I'm hoping to keep up enough quality to stay sharp while reducing junk mile day mileage.

GA run with 5 x 200m hill accels. Knees still bad even with IB, but it takes a while to build up in the system, and I only started yesterday afternoon. Finally we had a 'hot' (for us!) day to run in. It was 70* with 70% humidity. I need more of these to build up some heat acclimation before my July 10th race.

I didn't have a plan for today's run, but after I got going I felt I should try and get a little quality in. After 2 miles of slow (8:45) warm up I ran 3 miles hard up the Iron Horse trail (~3% grade), then after I turned around I took 5 minutes of running recovery then ran the last 5 miles at GA+ pace (now down the ~3% grade) of around 7:00 mpm. My knees still don't bother me during runs on the semi-flat terrain thankfully (just afterwards).
