You can't train injured. I would just keep adding what you can - Maybe look into the Galloway method to build mileage - The idea is to use a run walk ratio to cover the mileage

Run 15 minutes - Walk 2(or3 or4) then run 15 again.

Or run 10-walk 1 repeat.

A key ingredient is to walk before you have to walk so you can get more total running and more total mileage.

I am not a big fan of the Galloway method, but if it helps you build up you stamina faster and lets you hit the mileage - Its fine. Just work at decreasing you walk breaks.

You will have to figure out your final stategy to hit your goal.
