Knee update

Well, I've got good news and bad news. The good news is: I ran yesterday and this morning! The bad news: yesterday I was only able to do it for 16 minutes before I became exhausted, and this morning I was only able to do it for 30 (I walked another 15). Now, keep in mind that I have not run since the 1/2 marathon and that yesterday I tried to do it at 11:00 am (stupid), but I have lost a lot of my conditioning. Amazing how fast that happens. Yesterday, my knee did not hurt at all! YEA! But today, it stiffened up after I stopped and now it is hurting. I've been icing it and eating ibuprofen and that should help. Going home to do my exercises tonight in hopes of being at 100% on Saturday, but if not, I can at least walk the 15 miles. I will try to run as much as I can but I will not push it. I am excited for 15 though regardless. See ya'll Saturday! We are marathoners!!!
