I've been struggling with runner's knee but I thought I would run this race anyway because I figured I would PR. I did.

5:38, 5:41, 5:50, 5:50, 5:48, 5:47, 1:10

I was in in like 20th for the first mile then moved up to 3rd very rapidly. Stayed there by myself until mile 4 when I got passed. I hung on to the guy until about 800meters to go when I finally lost contact. Happy that I did the race and came away with a 14second PR.

Knee didn't hurt at all during the race (dopamine I guess) then afterwards my calves were killing me (due to stupidly wearing my rockets). I also felt nauseous at the finish line, as is tradition after PRing. The nausea plus destroyed calves meant I didn't do any cooldown so I had no chance to see what my knee felt like.

Ran to work. Knee felt fine to begin with but some rubbing showed up after a mile. On the run home I started to have some mild pain. It doesn't seem any better after three days off.

Ran a short loop around my neighbourhood. Downhills still hurt. In fact the run was worse than yesterday. Still made it through the run, but probably would be better to take some more days off.
