Went into Orthopaedics this morning to get my knee checked out due to some discomfort

I was feeling the past few weeks.  X-rays came back negative but I'm still a little concerned whenever I experience some type of new pain.  Moving forward with caution.

Not easy today.  Indoor run at LTF Romeoville. 7 miles.  A little difficult this morning, did not feel a good rhythm mechanically. Breathing was also a tougher. I met up with my fellow comrade  Karl for our usual routine.  90 min. of upper body weights/core training.
