This all went down Tuesday morning at Planet Fitness around 7:15am.
How exact of me to remember such an epic moment in my recovery!
I do not know what this means. I'm not going to get too excited.
The first minute, I felt fine. The next 4, it didn't hurt,
but I could feel the "inner workings" of my knee... best way I can describe it.
No pain the rest of the day.
Knee still does not feel "normal" but 5 minutes and no pain? I will take it.
Tomorrow I may try seven minutes.
I started with a 10 minute pace and worked up to a nine.
The faster you go, the more pounding, so I didn't want to push it.
Why did it hurt and feel tight on Saturday but not Tuesday? Well, it may be getting "better".
Or it may be because on Tuesday I was very warmed up (already lifted and did arc trainer),
I stretched a lot, and I was on the softer surface of a treadmill.
It may hurt tomorrow, who knows?
BUT YESTERDAY,
I RAN FOR 5 MINUTES!!!!!!!!!!
Tell me something glorious!!!
Yay!!! You're getting better! So happy for you :) something glorious: my birthday is Saturday! I'm going out for milkshakes even if it's freezing out haha.
ReplyDeleteMilkshakes are awesome, no matter the temp! I hope your bday is wonderful. :)
DeleteYAY!!!!! I understand that "inner workings" feeling. I get that on runs sometimes, especially if I've just had a race or long run. Sounds like good news!
ReplyDeleteSomething glorious...I have two weddings to attend this month, both for friends from college, so we get to see our favorite group of people twice in March!
That is great! I looooove weddings... dressing up is so fun!
DeleteThat's so great!!! No pain! Finally!
ReplyDeleteSomething glorious: my suddenly noisy neighbors didn't make a peep last night allowing me to get really good sleep :)
You deserve it after your race!
DeleteI'm really liking the title of this post lol CONGRATULATIONS!!!! That's so exciting :) Keep adding a minute or two each day and before you know it you'll be healed and back to normal!
ReplyDeleteI curse when I am excited! :)
DeleteWoohoo! Congrats!!
ReplyDeleteMy "something glorious" has to start with something non-glorious: I have jury duty today, BUT that means I'm in my PJs reading blogs at the time I'd usually already be at work!
I never had jury duty! maybe you will get an interesting case???
DeleteWHOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! :) :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear how your knee felt the next day - hopefully NO PAIN! :) :)
Spoiler alert: 7 min today, still feeling good :)
DeleteYaaaay! So excited that you ran! I hope you still have no pain today!
