This is not the log of each workout I do, but rather a higher level summary of what's happening with my training overall. For a detailed log, I use [[SportTracks]] and publish to [[Dailymile]] at http://www.dailymile.com/people/JonathanS.

==December 2016==
My December has been moderately successful. My knee has continued to improve, and while it's not quite right it's not limited my running. The information is largely gone, and there is rarely any pain, but the knee does not like to be fully flexed so I can't really sit crosslegged. So far, I'm glad I didn't have surgery. The main limit on my running at the moment is fitness, and running 16 miles 3 times a week is moderately challenging. My current thought is to build that up to 20 miles 3 times a week and then see about adding in some interval training and/or some Treadmill Descents. Most of my runs through December were just one run a day, where in November I'd split things into 2 most days I ran just once. (November average to 1.8 runs per running day, where December was 1.3.) One new running problem was that just before Christmas I tripped over my dog while walking and landed rather badly. I've damaged my ribs and it's painful to take a deep breath want to raise my left arm as I would to drink from a water bottle. I can still run, but it's extremely slow and somewhat unpleasant. I'm hoping that it will recover relatively quickly. I ended up with just over 2,000 miles for 2016, which is not a bad total given my knee injury, but is my lowest total in well over a decade.
