"You can't alway get what you want, you get what you need"

I ran yesterday. My mom and I played tennis and I decided that I would attempt to run home. This was a good idea to see where I was in my running and with my knee. Unfortunately, my knee hurt a little bit, but I think that was due to running a bit down hill. The pain wasn't unbearable, so I was happy about that. The other good news is that my knee didn't hurt when I got home. Usually the pain would stick with me.

I am not happy with my running though. I felt slow and weak. Two things that scare me. I also told someone that if my knee hurt when I went running again, I would go see a doctor. It's not what I want, but it's clearly what I need.

Sorry I've been bad about updating. I've been struggling because running is a passion of mine that has sort of been taken away. My goal is to run a 5K on the Fourth of July. Let's hope my knee can handle it!

I thought I could runaway from the pain.....but it's right there with me. This will make me stronger, I know it!
