First attempt at running today... OUCH!
My left knee is so angry/inflamed. I think I will try to run/walk every morning this week. I only got 2 miles and I can run through pain but this is more than pain. I will check out the community rec center close to work and try to start on a bike/swimming workout for awhile.
If I don't recover the knee no Columbus marathon this fall. I really wanted to try 2 marathons this year.
If I stay in shape otherwise I could start my running trai...

Good Friday Morning!!It is ridiculously gloomy and my left knee feels like I ripped it off and crammed it back on incorrectly .

I did some long stretches this am and I have been walking every day but when you are used to eating 1500 cal and working off at least 500 cal. I am hungry and frustrated. This too will pass.
We are looking at a rainy, windy nex...

Ok, so back into a routine....I am so easily thrown off by one weekend of distraction, but what a great weekend it was!
I should have gotten back on food schedule yesterday but I didn't. Oddly enough I woke up this morning ready to stick with it and I'm totally in the groove.
I am really getting good at listening to my body. Weird.
Walked at lunch yesterday and planning on it again today. Then mowing the neighbor's lawn after work with the pushmower. That will help.
The ol' legs ar...
