The bad leg

The week started off with me going to the athletics club where I hurt my knee cap on the step as we walked into the changing room. I still did the training because we were on the grass we did the warm as and we had to throw a bean bag to each other which was hard because of the wind. I was with Olly and Tore where we did a rolling relay 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1, up and down the field and all Tore did was moan it was too far I enjoyed myself. After the training my knee started to hurt really bad so I missed the time trial on Wednesday and helped with the time keeping instead. We were at Sutton bank. I was hoping to do the evening league at Ilkley on Thursday night which I did I then had rest on Friday. Did some speed work on Valley Road 3 sets of 3 between the lampposts which I enjoyed but I was slightly slower than last week because of the knee hurting me, my time average was 40s I started to slow down on the last set because of my knee I had rest on Sunday because I am wanting to do Ripon 10 miles next Sunday
