Dear Left Knee . . .

Dear Left Knee,
 
Tomorrow, when I wake up, you better be feeling better. We're going to spin class and then maybe doing a short afternoon run, since we've been slacking on runs lately. If you get your *** together, I promise no hills (at least for tomorrow.)
 
Love,
The rest of my body that wants to runnnnn

Re: Dear Left Knee . . .

  • I had a similar discussion with my right knee tomorrow and we are going to kickboxing tomorrow. I also made the same deal that i would avoid hills if it stopped acting up.

  • do you do anything when your knee acts up? i also have a bad r knee from playing sports when i was younger and it's starting to act up again for me too now that i am running more. i might wrap it or get some kind of brace.
  • 1. I didn't make it to spin. I stayed up late reading the third book in the Hunger Games trilogy (spin is at 5:45am.) Whoops.

    2. I'm going to attempt a short (3 mile) easy, flat run this afternoon (at the track or on my treadmill, depending on the weather.)

    3. I wore a brace when I was working out on Saturday (boot camp style class) and since then have been icing/taking Tylenol. (I even brought an ice back to work today so I can elevate and ice during my prep periods.)

    Honestly, it hurts more when I'm sitting still. Hurts isn't even the right word, it's just sore. I wish I had gotten up for spin because I think biking would have helped, but I didn't.

    I might look into getting the kt tape that firedancer mentioned.

  • I have very similar discussions with my left knee all the time, as that one seems to be the worst of the two. Especially after a treadmill run-I usually end up doing a few of those talks.
