Yesterday brought more IT stretches. Talked to Wade(the tri-athlete/marathoner) and he said to just continue with what I'm doing.
I got in the pool again. Swam for about 20 minutes before getting kicked out of the pool by the LT kids swim team. Lame. I have a hard time keeping track of laps in the pool, but I think I did 600 or so meters. Not to much, but by the end of it I could feel my knee start to hurt and I didn't want to push it to much. I was trying to get a 1000 in, but owell. I'll go again tonight and see how it goes. I think the breast stroke puts more strain on my knee than freestyle, so despite my out of shapeness, I guess I'll just have to deal with my pathetic performance freestyle wise in order to reduce the strain on my knee.
I got in touch with my friend, Sunshine, again last night. He's a big time runner as well and has had this same issue except his was a true injury. He's going to try to help when he can with the recovery and rehab outside of the gym. It was good to talk to him again. We worked out together for almost a year back in college. It was a good time.
Music...Joshua Radin. I may have already mentioned him. I don't remember
