I'm training for my half marathon. I'm (finally) addicted to running, then BAM! On my long run this past weekend, I had this hot stabbing pain run from my knee up my leg and back down to my knee. I just about fell over on the MoPac trail in pain, the pain from my knee and biting my tongue so I wouldn't scream F*%^ at the top of my lungs. I was halfway out on my run. I had to hobble home. Muttering profanities all the way. I'm pretty sure I freaked some people out. Here was this red faced sweaty girl with her ipod blaring, muttering and stringing curse words under my breath that sailors probably wouldn't dare say. Yep, pretty sure I scared some people, while also making an old runner laugh. At least I made someone laugh.
But, at least this week is recovery week in bootcamp, which translates into yoga along with low intensity workouts. I'm putting ice on my knee twice a day. I'm going to try and run 1 mile (pathetic I know) on the treadmill (gasp) at the rec tomorrow and then try and bike for a little bit. Hopefully I can run 2 miles, but it all depends on the knee.
As for school, I'm getting my manuscript ready to publish. I'm pretty stoked about this, I'm hopefully going to be published soon. I know I need to edit my paper more to shorten it, but hopefully my advisor will help me with that and I'll get it in before the end of the semester. That is the goal at least. We are still waiting for price quotes on equipment for my research and my one class is going well. All in all I'm just hanging out, especially this week since I don't have class.
Charlie is going really well. We still have a lot of stuff to work on but hopefully we will be ready by the end of April for our first show! Will keep ya posted on that one:)
Have a good night folks!
