KNEES UGH

Well, couldn’t run today.  I twisted my right knee about a month ago and it has been giving me problems here and there.  Then last week, I went to let Mina (our basset) in off the chain and slipped on the frosted deck on the top of my left knee cap.  Oh my GOD did that hurt, plus a brush burn that scabbed over………………..and I think I did something to it.  So I have been hobbling around, especially up and down stairs………both ways, up and down kill. 

I REALLY felt like running today, especially cause we got the basement cleaned up on that side where I have equipment.  I was going to do the week 2 last day C25k run, and I made it through the first run, but felt it, then by the second run I had to just walk.  I did race walking style, LOL.  When running I could feel the tendon or what ever is under the knee cap hurt on both knees.  But walking didn’t seem to do that.  It also hurt when I was trying to just stand with feet apart knees slightly bent to do some exercises standing and some lifting. 

I hope that these knees don’t continually pain me and I can get back into running, or walk/running that I do.

Bob and I just talked about it this weekend.  In our 40’s it seemed like our eyes went to crap, now beginning our 50’s the body is going,  UGH!!!!!
