Today I decided to go for a short run to see if my knee could handle it. I hadn't run since Saturday because I was worried. I did play tennis yesterday and I was fine.
Three miles.
I was going a pretty good pace and nothing was in pain. At one point I was scared and could feel my knee slightly, but I tried not to think about it.
In the end, I survived. And so did my knee.
I don't know if I could handle a long run just yet. I want to ease into it. I also should probably get something for my knee when I do decided to run a longer distance.
Anyway.....today's run was needed.
I ended up running 3 miles with a 7:41min/mile pace.
That to me is a success. Now I just have to make sure I continue to keep up my fitness level and be careful on my knee.
It's going to be a good year for running.
