Week 4: Day 5


Time: 6 am             

Distance: 4.8 Km           

Duration: 32 min and 22 sec           

Place: Electronics City, Bangalore



Due to the pain near my knee I could not run with a good pace. I ran bit slowly. There was a slight improvement in my stamina today. I did not get exhausted soon. I ran non-stop for 2.4 Km. I finished the course in pretty much the same time as yesterday. I ran the final 1 Km with a good pace but it was hurting my knee.

I felt bit of difficulty while climbing stairs due to the knee pain. It is not exactly the knee but the bone beneath the knee. After doing warm-down and stretching I felt better. During the afternoon the pain was almost gone. But again right now in the night I am feeling bit of pain. But I am sure this pain will heal itself in couple of days.

I have planned tomorrow for a walking session and I will be doing my long run on Sunday due to the schedule which I missed earlier this week. Also it will be good time for my knee pain to heal and get ready for Sunday’s long run.

Sunday’s run is for 14.4 Km thinking of which I am very much scared. I am not sure how I am going to run keeping in mind the knee pain and the recent decrease in my stamina level. I started eating more and did Pranayama today. I pray to God to help me in finishing the 14.4 Km successfully in a decent time.
