Well, that didn't work...

I was going to write a whole post about how I got a knee brace and it magically made everything perfect and I was able to run 9 miles without any problems. Well, I got the brace, ran a mile and had to walk/run (with more walking than running) the last 3 miles. I wish I knew what was up. My hips felt fine, my legs felt great, it's just that stupid right knee. I guess I'll just have to do the bike or the elliptical tomorrow. The only thing with the elliptical is, my toes go numb when I do it. Am I the only one out there who has that problem?

Oh well, 4 miles today is better than nothing. It's just so weird  cause right now I feel 100% like I could run with no problems, it's just that stinkin' knee. I've done my stretches, iced it, heated  it, stretched it...lets hope something works.

that is such a bummer :( I hope it feels better soon.
My right knee pops when I bend it and freaks me out a bit. It gets sore more than my left. I hope it holds up.

Wouldn't it have been cool if you just needed a brace? Something's gotta work out - on the plus side even with an injury you probably feel better than you did 1 year ago...am I right? I hope so.
