Total Distance

8.27

am- Well I guess it's not mental, cause todays trail run with Yak(Mitch) and Xander was kinda painful. The first and last few minutes were very painful. Man it is frustrating. But we ran my favorite trail run so it was good. Good ol' Brakens Loop. I went 70 minutes, and did our pickups too, which was 2 sets of 1,1,2 min reps with 5 minutes between each rep and set. Good stuff except for when it's not?

If anybody knows what helps knee pain thats on the right knee on the left side of the knee, please let me know. I have been wrappin, icing, and taking ibuprofen but if there is anything else I would love to know!

That sounds like the same pain that happened to me. It kept hurting for forever and wasn't getting better and my mom talked to the dr she worked for a lot and he said to get a steroid injection in it. So I went to see a knee doctor Named Dr. Clark and he looked at it and said it was inflamed. I got the injection and the inflammation went away and within the next week it was feeling back to normal.

I was gonna say, I thought I remembered you having something similar last year. Thanks for the advice!
