So last week I went on a 5 day cruise, Saturday-Thursday and didn't run during the cruise. The first time I ran again was Saturday, so I had 7 days off. I had no injury prior to the cruise, and didn't do anything strenuous whatsoever duing the cruise (ie. no hiking, running, falling, etc). I noticed during that first run that the back of my knee was very tight, but not quite painful, except maybe a slight (1 on a 1-10 scale). It didn't hurt while running long/slow or short, fast intervals over the course of the last week, but was tight when starting the run. It seems to be the back of my right knee, on the inside and feels like a tendon or something. If I stand with my knees straight and feel the back of my knees, that knee feels swollen on the back.

I don't know how I could have been injured, and it doesn't stop me from running, I'm just really curious what it could be. I'd really appreciate any thoughts.
