Knees Up Mother Brown....

Yesterday saw my last long(ish) run (when did 10.5 miles become a short run?!)

Again no ankle pain (yay!), sadly plenty of knee pain (boo!)
On the positive side I am so used to having sore knees that it's not going to stop me but it does mean i'll be (even) slower and more than that it is just frustrating.

I get this problem every year around this time. The only thing I can think of is that it is linked to my hayfever medication - but I have been unable to Google any connection between cartilage and cetrizine hydrochloride so it can't be true can it!!


Convinced of the connection I have stopped taking it - it's probably too late but if nothing else I will be able to sneeze my way around!

So now the time to marathon is being counted in single days, soon to be just hours. If I can get round in 5 hours or less I am going to be happy. After all the injury problems of the last six months getting round is plan a, less than 5 hours is plan b, anything less than that is fantastic!
