Today has been good day. I started out the day with some much needed yoga. It is hard, through... I would love to go into deeper posses, but am restricted by the knee. It is all going to be okay because I know it will get better soon. It is just hard going from being so active to being restricted. I will take what I can and just keep being positive and know that I will be back into running shape in no time.
I have noticed that the hardest part of the day is when I wake up in the morning. My knee is so stiff that it really hurts to take those few steps first thing in the morning. Even if I get up in the middle of the night, when I get up I will get a shooting pain in my knee that will literally make me buckle. I am so afraid of doing something that will create more damage to the knee that I guard it all the time. I am always pushing my body and myself to the limits, but in this case I have backed off tremendously and did not realize how much I would miss running, cardio kickboxing and dancing around the showroom. I will be able to get to my favourite activities to there fullest soon enough, but today I am not being patient and I want it to happen now. The reasoning for being so impatient is because I have been over compensating for many weeks now. My arms and right side are feeling the burn and I want it to be a full body experience, not just a right side and upper body experience. Just tell myself that patience is a virtue. Just keep swimming… Just keep swimming. Today is a good day and lets rock it out with that!
