Patience; the new endurance sport.

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 walk-jogged this at 13-15 MM.  I did a lot of strenghtening excertsizes and quad/ham/knee stretching.  Stretching/foam rlling makes me cry and shake uncontrollably when I'm trying to straighten out my leg. Booo hoooo.  It's the skiing on my big fat powder skis that did me in.  I leaned too far back over a big load of snow and my tightened quads pulled my tendon to shreds. 

I ran 3.5 miles in the morning (squats push-ups situps).

Ram another three in the evening average pace 1033 MM

You can congratulate me On being non-OCD.

For the record my favorite loop Ron last park vintage Park Loop is 6 miles if I tack on .05

I am so discouraged about my knees, the crappy snow, and about the 7 pounds I must now go to heroic lengths to lose.
