pain in the butt

Actually, it’s only bad when I’ve been sitting/lying still for a while and get up again. Once I get moving, it’s not so bad.

Thus, the consequences of marathon training. This morning, we greeted the bright, brisk day at 9 am, and ran through several towns along a former railroad line, now a paved trail.

My knee did begin acting up near the end, but I made it pain-free for almost thirteen miles. I walked the last .75, for a grand total of fourteen miles.

Despite the knee pain (the aches come with the territory), I consider the run a success.

We are well on our way!

  1. yay – go merry! I admire you, I truly do! I did aqua aerobics on Thursday, first time after 3 or 4 weeks – nearly killed me! I was very, very tired at work the next day.

  2. btw I started taking fish oil to see if it helps my knees – I’ve heard good reports! I’m hoping it will also help my brain 😉
