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.
==March 2016==
I II took far more time off in March to try to let my knee recover, so my mileage is extremely low. This is the least I've done since I started keeping records in 2004. Initially I was running 8 miles every other day, then I took most of 10 days off with just an occasional 3 mile run. This did make a difference, and the inflammation in my knee finally subsided. I think went to see [[http://www.carolinasportsclinic.com/southpark.html Dr Duffy]], and he thinks it’s most likely pes anserine bursitis. Rather strangely, I’ve found a muscle trigger point about 3-4 inches above the downtime may have helpedback of my knee, in between the hamstring tendons, and treating that trigger point immediately improves my range of motion and reduces the pain on full flexing of the knee. I’ve no idea what muscle this is, though I still have some way it’s a knee flexor so it could be [http://rad.washington.edu/muscle-atlas/biceps-femoris-short-head/ the short head of the Biceps Femoris hamstring]. As March turns to April I’m starting to run more, but the inflammation and pain seems to goreturn.
