And the skies clear...

I'm currently working my way towards a half marathon (13.1 miles for the uninitiated) a week from now, the NYRR Queens Grand Prix. As such, I've been working my way up in mileage, because I haven't had much in the way of big mileage, begin stuck doing 3-5 mile runs daily with my training partner. Bumping up the mileage into the double-digits has taken a toll on my knees though. Earlier, a 10-miler turned into a 5-miler because my knees just weren't up to the task. I don't feel the knees as much when the run really gets me into my stride and the pace quickens, but I can't taper down in mileage and get faster just yet. I have 2-3 days before I can let that happen. Oh the dilemma!
