knee glitches...

this weekend's runs didn't go exactly as planned. i began the run on saturday (on the treadmill - i should have been outside, but i had ian and don't have an operable jogging stroller currently) by plugging 40 minutes into the treadmill computer. i intended to run a consistent 7:24 pace, and was going along just fine until i hit 2.9 miles. at which point my knee decided it didn't want to go any further...

i don't know running injuries or human anatomy particularly well. all i know is the inside of my right knee sent shooting pains to my brain. and i really hope the pain goes away, because i'm actually beginning to enjoy running. and i just picked up a garmin on friday - which would be completely useless if i couldn't run.

so i made my knee hold up to finish the 5k (22:52) and figure i should ride the bike or get in the pool this week and give the knee a rest. i did make it out for a short hike yesterday with no pain - it's starting to look like spring here. i really need to get a good tune on the bike and get the garmin figured out and trade the cardio equipment for the azure colorado sky...

and on a different note, i think i settled on a design for the tattoo and, perhaps, a studio. now it's up to deciding if i really want to do it. we'll see...
