I hurt my knee skiing yesterday.  The 20 inches of snow that fell, was heavy and wet and messy on top of the mountain.  Toward the end of the day, I leaned way back in my skis and could feel the pain from that cross fit injury that landed both of my knees into the cement floor.  I'm sure I've torn the tendon, I'm sure it's tendonitis.  I spent my day doing sit ups/push ups and icing my knee trying to decide how bad I think it really is and if I should go back to the orthopedic surgeon.

I hope not either. I walk-jogged today and it's not too bad--but it's associated with flexing my quads. So it's back to the drawing board with all the ham/quad strengthening and stretching. I skiied like a maniac 4 days in a row on heavy, wet snow and by the last (heaviest) day, I lost my balance.....I'm not panicking yet. It may just be the end of skiing for this year.
