Went to the doctor today and had my knees x-rayed. I have a grade 2 MCL sprain and a slight MCL tear. No surgery required. Just a fair amount of time and rehab at my age.
It was good to see that I have no sign of arthritis and plenty of cartilage in my knees. Should have many years of happy running once the ligament heals.

Watched Donald Trump's remarks at CPAC today. You can tell he loves America because he actually hugged the flag on stage. Such a shame those bone spurs kept him out of Vietnam.

I believe the doctor misdiagnosed my supposed MCL sprain which only confirms my suspicion of doctors and running injuries.

| AM: I rode 30 miles on the stationary bike in 1:38 at the Sugarhouse 24 Hour Fitness. Observed that riding 20 mph on a Precor bike feels quite a bit harder than riding the same speed on a StarTrac bike. One must be off.
PM: 4.25 mile walk.

Went to the doctor again for my knee. He decided to schedule an MRI for me next Thursday then a follow-up visit with him the following Tuesday so he can tell me about the MRI. So four approximately 15 minute visits total to the doctor (minimum!) so they can tell me what's wrong with my knee (hopefully!). Of course a $50.00 co-pay every time. What a racket!
