Hi Pritesh,

I agree with Eric you are so close now don't push it too far. Maybe you just need to look at your running posture as some of the pressure can be taken off your knees if you lean slightly forward from the ankles when running.

I am currently up to 16 miles long slow run in preparation for the Birmingham Half in October and my knees tend to have a slight ache to them which eases off after I ice them for around 15 minutes (bag of peas or sweetcorn on each knee). Also I tend not to run the following day just to provide an extra recouperation period.

Finally you should now be considering tapering in preparation for the forthcoming race. Good luck let us know how you get on.
