What a way to screw up a knee

So my friend April, her husband and I went to this place in Memphis called Shelby Farms. I love this place, mostly because it is the only "natural" place in the entire city of Memphis. It is this gigantic agricenter that grows field and has a natrual wildlife center. And it is smack-dab in the middle of the city, kind of like how central park is in New York. It has some awesome trails going from 1.67 to 10 miles long. We decided to jog on the 3 mile one. April is just starting to work out and I was there to help push her along. Well yesterday, I felt WONDERFUL afterwards.... today...not so much. I think I strained my knee and now I simply hurt.....not too bad, but enough to irritate me.

However, tomorrow we are going again and I am determined to take it a little slower. It has been a while since I have jogged and I think I just pushed it too much. However, even with the knee, the view and wildlife is awesome- especially for a big city like Memphis.

I have decided to run OUTSIDE....not on the treadmill. I like walking on it too much and I am afraid that at my current weight, it will be too much of a strain on it and Ill bust it! lol I do hope your knee feels better for your next run, just take it easy!
