Last Friday I had an appointment with my doctor to check out my knee. It was/is an injury to my MCL. I’ve taken the week off, so it doesn’t hurt much at all now.
He asked if I was still planning on running- which I replied “Ya”. “Okay, so here is what you’ll need to do”
Buy an ACE compression brace and wear it on the run. Before the race, do some non-load bearing stretching and massage to warm up the knee. After the race, ice and elevate.
Worked great. (I won’t get into the race to much here, but icing with snow after the finish line helped a lot.)
