Knee injuries, even minor ones, aren't fun. As I've mentioned before I twisted my knee a couple weeks ago. It's mostly not a problem, but after the long run today it got very sore. Iced it down and rested it for most of the day after the run, but it's still a matter of concern. Today we did 7.8 miles, give or take, up and then back down Heartbreak Hill. Now one nice benefit of running there this time of year is that everyone always seems to think we're actually training for the full marathon, and are very complimentary. I went a little slower than I liked, particularly at the end, but I still ran the entire distance, though I had to stop twice to tie my shoes. Running the full 13.1 miles in June is looking more and more doable.
Food today: egg and cheese sandwich (300 calories), no real lunch but I ended up eating 6 rolls during the cooking process (600 calories), dinner was penne, sauce and garlic toast (1000 calories). Exercise was the 7.8 miles of running (900 calories).
Today's Results:
Daily Food Total: 1900
Exercise: 900
Points Earned: 2000
Total Points Earned: 19835
