Training Week 14
My PT friend treated my knee/leg yesterday with electric stimulation therapy. It was great. I am so thankful for her wanting to help me out. I went for a long run this morning with a goal of 10 miles. I felt ok the first 5 miles. I ran a very slow pace and walked 1 or 2 minutes every other 2 or 3 minutes of running. I was trying to be very conservative with my pace and injury. By mile 6 I knew what I was starting to feel was the pain coming back on the side/almost inside of my knee. It felt tight and the pain was very light. By 6.5 I called my man to come get me. I made it to mile 7 but had to walk/run every 20 t0 30 seconds. Not fun. I'm really bummed... but not giving up hope just yet.

No, don't give up hope! Be careful when you start out running again. I wouldn't run until the pain is gone. I know - that's easy to write and hard to do. And here's a lil' reminder: ice! I know I need those reminders sometimes!
