(Almost) back on the road

well, I haven't posted in a while but here's the scoop.

as my last post said I ran a whopping 5 miles to start my training and then was planning on going in early to work from now on to run the miles needed and such. Turns out running 5 miles to start off = NOT SO SMART! My mom should have done the forehead thing to me. I had a slight pain in my knee after that but ignored it and went on with my training. By wednesday, figured that was a big mistake because I could hardly put pressure on my knee let alone run on it. So I've been taking it easy and it seems to be getting better..for the most part.

I went to Montreal on Sunday and walked a LOT so I'm going to count that as part of a work out due to not being able to do much on my bum knee. But even that hurt a bit.

So kiddos, here's what we've learned: don't bite off more than you can chew, stay off bum knees, and don't let momma van ev have an excuse to bop you on the forehead.

We'll see what next week brings (again..) and hope this whole not being able to run doesn't become a habit!
