Busy day at work, all this week I have people from our other facilities, from all over the world, coming to our facility. So I'm busy making sure all the meeting are running smooth and everyone is feed and happy :) Plus there will be tours tomorrow that I will have to help with. Man it makes for a crazy day. 

Knee is still a bit buggy, but I think it's a tiny bit better. I took it easy on the treadmill. 6.4 miles at about a 9:22 pace. Not too much going on tonight at the gym. There was one guy running on the upper track that ran like he was holding a walnut between is bottom cheeks. After a few laps he seemed to loosen up a bit.

I decided to not run because my knee has really been hurting. I finally made an appointment with the doctor, but that is not til Feb. 3. I opted to do the spin bike for 30 min then the eliptical for 30. I was a puddle of sweat, but not happy :( there is nothing that can really take the place of running.

Knee is even worse today if that is possible. I don't know if I will try to do spin class and eliptical again tonight. I will keep you posted. I'm so bummed... I need to start training for all the races I want to do... Ogden in May, I'm hoping with rest, massage and seeing the doctor things will turn around fast, until then I'm not a happy girl and it is showing. Husband is on alert LOL.

Another day of biking... I did 45 minutes on the spin bike that they have in the back far corner of the gym... so needless to say I didn't have the best position to do any people watching. Hmmm oh well, knee felt slightly better. Here's to hoping things will get better.

It will be a not be running again today, I go see the massage guy tonight after work, so I'm really hoping he can help it out some. Then my husband booked a room at the State Line. My husband and I are complete opposites sometimes, and this is one of the times. He loves to go gamble and eat at the resturants... stay up til all hours of the night. I on the other hand don't. But I usually get my way and we don't go do things like this, and I need to be a bit more flexable so that we can both have fun.

Knee is about the same as yesterday. Still hurts especially when I first get up from sitting for a while or getting up in the morning. For now I do not think it's getting better. I still have a week before I see the doctor and I'm completely stressed that this will set me back too much. It's starting to effect my ability to sleep also, last night was horrible! All I can think about is "what if I don't get better" Makes me completely sad.

Wish me luck... I will really try to have fun with hubby even though it's not my cup of tea.
