physical therapy exercises

went to PT & tried to learn how to apply the tape to my knee.  There will be a learning curve, but I got the ok to run on it as long as there isn't pain. 

Now I just have to "take er easy" and not over due anything.

I was going to wear my just above the knee-length skirt today, but after looking at my black taped up knees (they did both for the training)  I put the skirt back on the hanger and wore pants.  Short skirt Thursdays are going to be put on hold for a while :-(

Hoping for a nice, slow, short jog in the morning.  :-)

Oh I hope you got a good jog in this morning, especially since you didn't get to wear the skirt yesterday OR get cookies :)

are you using KT tape? i have heard that stuff is a miracle worker. hopefully you'll have the same review!

don't worry about the skirt/tape look. i see people doing it all the time. it doesn't look bad. to me it looks like a hardcore runner. now put your skirt on and get out there!

KP- It is the KT. I was happy with the results I had when they taped my knee the week of Thanksgiving. I hope the results continue to help.

There is however, no flippin' way I am brave enough to show off the tape under a skirt at work. There is a lot of tape of on my knees right now.

Thanks for the encouragement- you're the best :-)

RAD- I only got in 1.2 miles. I was too tired to get out of bed early enough to get the groceries and run. Probably best that I start off slow again anyway. That's my justification, and I'm sticking with it!
