Master 7712 Orlando | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2016 - Closed Originally posted by Asalzwed Phew alright, got all my ducks in a row finally. Registered for all of my races (at least everything that is open) Nabbed a charity spot for my marathon. Ironically I was out running and missed my registration reminder and it sold out. I think it will be cool to run for a reason other than myself though, so the "price to pay" so to speak was worth it in a couple ways. It's going to be an interesting shuffle, training for and then running a "fast" marathon, summiting a mountain 2 weeks later, running an ultra three weeks after that. It might sound kind of out there but I think so long as I take care of myself, it should all play nicely together.
That's quite the line up you have! With all your other crazy running adventures, I;m sure you'll be fine! |

I really like, "The more you try to force your plan on the race, the harder the race will fight back with a plan of its own. So embrace the sh*t show and you’ll have a lot more fun out there, waste less energy fighting lost battles, and run faster. I also think its really important how she addressed taking care of yourself out there and not slipping into the helplessness. That really is a thing, and I imagine much more so with things like ironman and the longer, mentally exhausting events.

Speaking of things in the media, NPR did a short segment today about the death of Jack Johnstone, one of the founders of triathlon. http://www.npr.org/2016/02/02/465321566/jack-johnstone-creator-of-t... I'm sure this has probably popped up in some forum on here, but just in case you all hadn't heard it. |

Expert 2811 | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2016 - Closed Thank you for your well wishes. Things are moving quickly and it does not help that we really didn't plan this. I spent tonight meeting with a contractor and a plumber, for my Dad's room. My Dad is really excited now, and wants to move. Listening on my nightly call, I can hear why. She had an extreme drop in cognitive ability in the last few weeks or at least it is the fastest we have noticed a drop. I would not wish this disease on anyone. |

Master 6595 Rio Rancho, NM | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2016 - Closed Originally posted by marysia83 Originally posted by amd723 Yea, when it comes to the knee, I would ask for doctor's opinion.

When I hear "sharp" pain I think get to a doctor! Hopefully, it's just bruised, but I'd get it checked out! I slept with compression on it last night and it seems to feel better today (could be wishful thinking). I was thinking about it last night, I have a purple bruise on my hip the size of my palm, there is probably a similar injury on my knee. I'll give it time and test it in a few days. Meanwhile, I wonder if riding on the trainer would irritate it. |

First off, I'm not sure what you mean by sharp pain. Only you can judge that. It sounds like it is not bothering you with day-to-day activity but it is bothering you a lot when you run. Have you tried arnica gel? Ice packs? Foam rolling? |

As you mentioned, the knee isn't bothering me except when I run, and a bit when I go up steps. So I'm not sure that would help unless it also has anti-inflammatory properties (using Advil for that now). As for foam rolling, I haven't been so that I don't put pressure on the knee. Funny, when I fell the left knee seemed to have been impacted worse but it's the right knee with the lingering issue |

Re: foam rolling, I would do around the knee, not the knee itself. Some of the surrounding muscles -- hamstring/quad -- might be trying to protect the knee and could be tight and angry. I would not foam roll "the spot" itself. |

The legs always feel immensely better after foam rolling, like it releases everything. Maybe it will help. |

It helped me with muscle pain in multiple spots (calves, back, arms, etc), I also used it for my kids when they had really bad bruises. I hope your knee heals quickly. Keep us posted on the doctor's visit! |

Thanks for sharing, that was a great read! I tell myself since I'm just building my running (20 minute long run tomorrow!) I'm in the unique position of getting to build from the ground up with great habits. I love the one about being Autonomous! |
