DAY 14 quickie
Short run today. Seems I have 'runners knee.' It sucks. They have been bothering me, especially the right one, ever since I started this running stint. Progressively more swollen. Especially the right one. damn. It's really been bothering me today. My husband is in the medical field, and while he is not a doctor, he can spot a ^%$#ed up knee... and he spotted one. ha. Did a little research online, I am going to assume that it's because of my tight hamstrings, weak thigh muscles, and so forth. So as of now, the plan is to ice it after runs, and try stretching a bunch. (I have never been able to touch my toes... hopefully the stretching will make me a limber linda). Run today went well, I haven't logged it yet, but I think it was around 1.5 miles. Nice little short run.. it was cold and rainy and felt WONDERFUL. mmm.. I am really liking running now. I used to dread it, hubby has tried a few times to get me into it... but some how, magically, once I find the pace, it just works. :) I guess we'll have to wait and see if I still feel this way at DAY 234.
