Today's Injury

I woke up this morning with all intentions of doing a stretch-goal run - 6.5 miles. Lindsay and I set off on the path along the ocean (which was BEAUTIFUL) and after about .75 miles the inside of my right knee screamed at my "OUWIE OUWIE OUWIE!!" Needless to say, I had to stop. My 8k in Virginia is in 10 days so I am kinda freaked out. I DO have giant bruises all over my legs from water skiing (or, attempting to water ski) including one beauty right over my right inside knee. Ideally, this just means that the bruise is actually in the muscle and it will heal. Because, while I kind of like the idea of having proof of my fitness (i secretly love that I've had runners knee) I REALLY dont want to have to quit running.

Good thing we are staying 2 blocks from the beach so I can do Physical Therapy in the ocean :)

  1. Uh oh! Sorry to hear about your injury. Maybe a few days of rest will heal everything. Be careful during the race and keep me posted on how it goes! xoxo
