MY KNEES HURT!


I set a personal goal a couple weeks ago to help motivate me with my running. I set a goal of 15 miles a week. This usually comes in a combination of many different ways. I may run 4.5 miles on Monday and then maybe just 1 mile on Tuesday followed by 3 miles on Wednesday etc... I try not to set a goal for each day or I will just set myself up for failure. This system of a weekly goal had been working until last week when my knees began to ache and hurt! I've been taking the maximum amount of Motrin and today I switched to Aleve. Of course everyone has heard about how bad running is on your knees but I'm afraid I'm experiencing it. I have this vision in my head from last weeks episode of the Biggest Loser when the Dr. showed the teams their body's advanced age from the lack of proper nutrition. The only difference is my body is in an advanced arthritic age stage due to years of squats, lunges, and running. So , my point is I guess I may as well eat all the food I so desperately crave and get fat and enjoy life. Just kidding!

Quit wining :) You have two options:

1. You are old :)ha ha and have a husband and no need to impress anyone! Get fat and enjoy life

2. Get a boob job and a tummy tuck and you'll still feel like shit :)

I chose number 1. Fat and HAPPY !
