This is a journal about my journey of running rather than the destination. I love to run, it has become one of my true passions. Road races, trail runs, or endurance events. It's all fun, I'm just not that competitive. Below are some highlights. Thanks for reading.

Testing My Knee
Decided to test my knee today on a short run. After the 12 inches of snow that we got two days ago, I wasn't really excited to run in the snow or cold. So the treadmill won out. Immediately upon starting to run, I had pain in the knee. Walking does not hurt, but running at 4.7 mph does. So, I did a very slow jog, and stopped to stretch every 1/2 mile. It's just going take time, and a lot of stretching, ice, ultrasound, and patience for this to heal, just like my left knee did earlier this year. I still don't know why I'm prone to ITBS anyhow. It sucks. The knee does not hurt otherwise during the day, or when walking, only when running.
