Day Seventeen

Today I only did a 2 1/2 mile walk.  Did some of the exercise bike later on in the day but not much else.  My knee is really bothering me today.  I think I may have twisted my knee the other day when I was fishing.  I remember I was squatted down putting some bait back in my grandpa's tackle box and my fishing pole started tugging so I quickly stood up and turned to run toward it.  I think then is when I twisted it.  I have a slight sharp pain in my right knee so I didn't walk tonight.  I atleast did my regular 2 1/2 miles so I'm happy.  I don't know about tomorrow though.  One word of advise to any who are wondering about pushing yourself....
To push yourself is Great, HOWEVER, if you are hurting anywhere, especially in your leg, knees or feet, then DO NOT continue on until your pain stops.  Pain during workouts is good.  Pain a day or so after a good workout, that is something to watch out for.  You don't want to have a pain in your knees, leg or feet then try and just fight thru it during your daily run because if you blow out your knee, you're screwed for the next month(s) so be careful and make good choices.


I already had a rest day but if my knee still feels bad tomorrow, I'm goin to take it easy.  We shall see.  My diet for the last few days hasn't changed much.  Mostly soups, but lots of fruit and salad.  I miss meat so bad...ugh.
