Well I had my appointment with the Orthopedic Doc the other day and after a long exam, they offered two possibilities. The first thing it could be is my ITB (Iliotibial Band Syndrome) and the second is a torn meniscus. They took me for X-Rays which showed nothing conclusive. I then went for an MRI (what a noisy contraption) to rule out a torn meniscus. I go back for a follow-up appointment on November 1st, hopefully they will have some answers then.
For now all I can do is bike, swim and some core workouts that don’t involve the knee. I hope everything works out...I really like this sport!

Knee pain sucks!
I had planned on going for an 8 mile run yesterday... I only go about a mile or so before my right knee started to hurt. It started out as a dull pain on the outside of my knee that progressively got worse. I would stop and stretch a little, but the pain only got stronger. I eventually had to stop and walk because the pain was so bad. This isn’t the first time my knee started to hurt during a run, but it was never bad enough to stop... its bad now!
I called my doctor and she made an appointment with an Orthopedic for me. I hope everything goes well, I finally find something I love to do and now this knee problem!

All work and no play...
Work is just getting out of control... 60+ hours a week and no end in sight. Don't they know that I have a family life and I need to swim, bike and run in order to keep my sanity.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
