Injuries

Two weeks today:
Miles: 15:9
Miles: 3:3
Total: 101

The past two weeks have been rough with injuries and school.  The first week, I skipped Monday because of an exam, ran Tuesday, skipped Wednesday because of sharp ankle pains, ran Thursday, skipped Friday because I thought it best, ran Saturday.  Some parts of the run had 3+ inches of snow on the sidewalks, almost all of it had about an inch, so I think I tweaked my knee slogging through that mess...  On Monday, I finished my 3 miles but the walk downhill was excruciating.  WebMD said I had runner's knee, so I took the rest of the week off with ice and compression on the knee.  I got 1.5 miles in yesterday, going to try 5 miles today but we'll see how far I get.  Better to miss a few miles now, rather than get injured again...

Spring will never come...

Miles: 15:5
Total: 83
Best: The end of 2001: A Space Odyssey
Worst: Snow (again)

So this week was my 'back-off' week, so a little lower miles before I spring up to 19 next week.  Speaking of spring... we had snow again on Saturday, and it was painful getting in my eyes (more hail and ice pellets than snow).  And its snowing again today, so I'm probably going to the SDC today.  However, I finished 2001, excellent book.  I'll probably move onto Stranger in a Strange Land.  It'll be amazing how fast I get through these books now that my Saturday runs are reaching 2 hours.
