two

I was going to run three today. By 1.5 I knew I would only run 2 today. I had such a hard time breathing today. I ran two miles in 18:54, which is a 9:27 mile pace. I wore a brace on my right knee and a band on my left knee. They was starting to feel a little sore. I walked a mile home. I tried to run for a few minutes...hoping for a second wind or something...nope. My knees started hurting so I stopped. My knees felt fine after the run. After I stretched, I took a shower and then the pain started coming in my right knee. Walking/Standing=Pain. I'm going to keep trying and see how it goes this week. If things aren't working out, I may have to try and sell my spot in the half marathon and take a break from running until it heals or until I can get insurance and get surgery. My dad thinks I probably have what my sister has, which is also probably what he has going on with his knee. It will really be a bummer if I can't do the race, but I trust that my life will keep going on and I can still be happy without running :)
