I ran 2 today. I am having a hard time knowing what to do as I deal with my knee going crazy. The minute I started running, something started pinching in the back of my leg...it is behind the knee part of my leg (the part that bends)...anyways, something was pinching, I don't know if it was a ligament or tendon or whatever the rubbery cord type things on the back of your leg are. Anyways, I kept running for a few seconds and I decided to stop. I stretched my legs and marched in place to try and loosen it up a little bit. I wanted to go home, but I told myself that I already gave in by choosing to ONLY run 2 today, so i wasn't going to give in again. I walked back to the beginning and started again. No pinching problems until about half a mile. At this point I decided that when I reach one mile that I would stop running and walk home. As I approached the mile mark, I thought about how much harder my run on Saturday might be if I didn't keep going. I also reminded myself that if I can't learn some endurance...running the half marathon in August is really going to suck. So i decided to keep running. It was extremely hard to breathe the entire time because my allergies are progressively getting worse each morning. Finally I made it back and I told myself that I should give up running indefinitely. I know I can't...but I want to. Maybe after the half. Travis would be pretty annoyed that we paid the money and I didn't even run, so I at least have to make it that far.
