Ok, so when i got home last night, I was feeling like I was ready to try to run. I didn't want to wait til morning--when my knee is generally at its best after a full night's sleep--let's do it now! I was pumped. Got all ready and geared up, put "Go, Diego, Go" on for the girls, rationalizing that with the 25-minute show, I could get in two miles.
And then I ran. And it was killing me! My knee was hurting something fierce. And two miles turned into about 1/10....so I just walked. I walked at the threshold for where my knee felt ok to where my knee was hurting. Just under that pain level, it seemed, and that was 3.8 mph.
And my girls still yelled "Run Mommy Run", sweet gesture. I even put on a second episode so I could walk a little more. So for today, I'm counting a walk...not sure if this will count towards my total at all, I guess it really shouldn't, so here are the stats of Walk #1.
