realized i never mentioned that i’m not running at the moment. about a week and a half ago, 2 miles into a run my knee locks and i almost collapse. i hobble home, ice it. it’s sore, but 2 days later i try again and at 2.5 miles i get incredible pain. my knee just kind of hurts whenever i move it now. i got a small band to wrap around it to keep the kneecap in place, and it seems to help walking, haven’t tried running yet.
i don’t get it. train for a marathon, no knee problems. run casually for a little while and my knee is f-ed.
haven’t seen a doctor cause i don’t have one. i’ve been paying for insurance but haven’t found a doctor, and what can they say? ice it? wrap it? done and done. the only way they could fix something like that is with surgery and that doesn’t seem like it would be an option, so i’ll wait and see.
until then my race is off. no 10 mile up-hill race for me.
sigh. i need to run. it hurts not to.
