UhOh, I experienced a setback this week. I'm going to blame it on my not stretching enough.
I stretched briefly on Monday, July 7 and began my run. I ran from Wilson Blvd and Highland Street to Lee Highway and Veitch when I began to experience right leg and knee pain. I began to alternate my run between the grass and pavement (hahahah).
I made it down to the Rosslyn corridor when I realized something was wrong. I walked from Lee Highway and Fort Meyer Drive to Fort Meyer Drive and Route 50. As I proceeded to walk up Route 50 I had to stop and telephone a co-worker to come and pick me up. I have not been able to exercise this week.
I did start back on Friday with a slow walk and of course, I cut my route short. I will more then likely do my own routine this weekend and get ready to meet the Charity Partner next weekend.
P.S. talk about wanting to eat everything.

Sorry to hear about the knee! I had a friend go through a similar experience and she used a stationary bike and an eliptical machine to get back where she needed. She also said that aspirin and heat compression helped too.
Just posted my diet tips- they've worked well for me and i've found that if i am real hungry and eat a little extra, it isn't too bad!
