I had a good day yesterday..activity wise. I enjoyed a 1 hour Zumba class, a quick 25min run, and strength training (upper body). Ended with 15,000 steps!! I was nice and sore today, at least my arms were. I decided to go for a run. I even tried to eat before hand (hoping this would give me more energy). I found that during my run I felt more sluggish than usual. I found that I run best right when I wake up (no coffee, no breakfast). Anyway, my right knee ended up acting up about 5 minutes into my run. I only completed a mile...not even in good time. It was a terrible run. During the rest of the day I noticed the pain went from my right knee and is now sitting on my left knee. Tomorrow is going to be a rest day, for sure. Will pick up my running again on Thursday.

I have been trying to follow a running schedule that M sent me. I find when I run back to back my knee always acts up. Not sure how to solve this dilema. New running shoes perhaps? Or I will just have to run, strictly, every other day. Either way I am looking forward to Thursdays run. And I have been Oh.So.Hungry. after my runs. I swear I could eat a cow sometimes, lol. The chocolate chip cookies in the cupboard are not helping, either!

I am pretty exhausted tonight. Spent the day doing laundry and fighting off naps. Got a couple "second winds" throughout the day. All is winding down now, so if I do doze off, I won't feel like a lazy bum! I am off to write B an email, shower, and watch The Kind of Queens. I love when B emails me just those short ones that say "I'm thinking of you." Makes my day! Also, I am back at the dental office tomorrow! Feels like I have been away for 6 days. Oh, wait, I have! Goodnight!
