wk20 & 21 'the plan' round up

wk20 - no running. stretching and strength exercises and some indoor pedaling.

wk21 - knee didn't feel too bad after highlander but there wasn't much running! again, deviated from the actual plan and just took opportunities as they came. the weather was good and the hills were calling.

....TAKING ADVICE.....
my right knee still feels 'weak'. it's only really problem when running at a consistent pace on a hard surface. like last night, at run club. hmmm.

hoping that i get round the fling then it's time to abandon the original plan. less road miles, shorter distances but two runs a day. i've also been looking at pilates and swimming, both things i can fit in around work and will help with core strength. i'm also going to start back at the climbing wall-this is the only time i don't mind stretching!!

so thanks for all the tips and advice. i think it's slowly starting to sink in.
