Today was an eventful run. We started out on a trail, but I ended up tripping on a rock and flying through the air, landing my knee into a rock and rolling across my forearm. The pain was bad enough in my knee that I didn't even notice the scrapes all over my arm. I shook it off after a minute of pain and got up. Ben and I went back to my apartment and I washed up and we went on a run to the track and back. My knee was hurting, but it loosened up as we ran. Out splits were 8:25, 7:16, 7:43, and 6:00 for the last .6 miles. I was slow at first, but once I got warmed up my knee felt fine. A little weak, but not bad. Tonight my knee is pretty sore, but I hope it won't stop me from running. I think I'll just have a good bruise, I don't see any swelling. Here's my arm after the fall. I don't remember the last time I ate it this bad. |
