Karma Katastrophe
Disaster, distaster, catastrophe has struck - or at least that's what it feels like - my knee has flared up again badly and Im sure its Karmic retribution. Im hoping that writing my blog will be like cleansing my soul and everything will be ok, so let me explain: my friend Ben is doing the Snowdonia challenge this weekend, it sounds a great event for a great charity and he's been training really hard http://www.justgiving.com/snowdoniacharitychallenge2008. Last week he told me about problems with sore feet and I delivered a long lecture on getting it checked out and getting treatment and not ignoring it.
So this weeks training had been going well, not feeling too stiff after the weekend, a good run on Tuesday, and then Tuesday night my knee just gives way with a horrible owch. So here I am talking myself out of getting physio treatment and convincing myself its just the usual pre-race aches. A true case of do as I say and not as I do... So I hope Ben's feet are feeling better with his race so close and in the meantime I will be applying RICE and doing my strengthening excercises with my fingers crossed.
