It is tough to sit back and XT when every one else is running. <BR/><BR/>I just hope that knee gets better soon, and holds out through the race is always the deal I make with my body.Vivhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01275505112098052230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-524578123801872532008-08-28T15:13:00.000-04:002008-08-28T15:13:00.000-04:00haha yes i agree with the "addicted in a good way"...haha yes i agree with the "addicted in a good way" comment. <BR/><BR/>take it easy on your long run and hope the knee doesn't bother you at all!Aronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17418163097675963683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-43313088831775971162008-08-28T12:40:00.000-04:002008-08-28T12:40:00.000-04:00I'm so with you.

It was such a nightmare, it was hard living with myself :-) On the flipside, the rest was worth it as I haven't had a knee pain since.Debs M-Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04710598450672711518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-54523756174845749932008-08-28T10:41:00.000-04:002008-08-28T10:41:00.000-04:00I'm addicted.

I ran 4 last night and i need to get my butt on the treadmill and go for a 2-3 mile run. <BR/><BR/>I too have had my share time off due to injuries. I guess it depends on how bad your knee pain is. If its your runner addiction saying YOU HAVE TO RUN, but your body is really not wanting you to, then you should do what you think is right.<BR/><BR/>My ankle has been sore lately, and its not stopping me. I should take a day off and rest, but i feel so bad doing it. I dont know. I think running makes people crazy. :)<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the challenge if you decide to do it... i'll be out running too!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11825097650104995097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-64021338429835810142008-08-28T10:12:00.000-04:002008-08-28T10:12:00.000-04:00I would like to say "addicted in a good way" LOL. ...I would like to say "addicted in a good way" LOL.

I see other people running and I get jealous. Even if I ran in the morning, and I see people running on my way home from work, I want to get out there with them.<BR/><BR/>With the knee pain, I think rest is really best, because by running through the pain, it could make it much worse, and never really heal. Then running will be painful forever, and that would suck!<BR/><BR/>Good luck with back to school, resting, cross-training, and the pregnancy. = )RooBabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17856600693796324465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-26525900857981118542008-08-28T08:23:00.000-04:002008-08-28T08:23:00.000-04:00Damn blogger ate part of my comment.

Running is definitely a routinized part of my life now. <BR/><BR/>It aint easy to take a break (but it is all for the benefit of enjoying countless future runs).

We both need our hit everyday just to feel normal." I think he was right. I can take about 2 days off and be ok but consistently have a meltdown on the third day, regardless of the reason for not training. The good news for me, being a triathlete, is that I have 3 sports to choose from and any one of them acts as the 'hit'... so injuries don't always put me totally out.<BR/>Hey, at least we're addicted to something healthy, right? It could certainly be worse! ;)Michelle Simmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10301323188060167291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-17075401697523368572008-08-27T21:30:00.000-04:002008-08-27T21:30:00.000-04:00Lol, I am NOT addicted, although I wish I was a li...Lol, I am NOT addicted, although I wish I was a little closer to being addicted than I am now! I have sucked in the running department lately...<BR/><BR/>I send my daughter to a daycare - and I LOVE them there, they are so great. I like that everyone there has been to college as an Early Childhood Educator. They are busy all day long and learn so much! Also, there are a lot of educators there all day long, not just one. I didn't want to put her in an in-home daycare - I am just wary about stuff like that and didn't like that there was only one person there, who knows what they are up to all day and if it is a nurturing environment? The daycare is a lot more money, but here it goes down a lot once they turn 18 months. But, I think it is totally worth it. She will be sad tomorrow though, she hasn't been there in about a month!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04571277949831701548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469780206027563404.post-84951318320163182932008-08-27T20:44:00.000-04:002008-08-27T20:44:00.000-04:00Yes I'm addicted - No it's not bad.

Lastly, my wife is a teacher who is back to school in NJ next week, so I suffer indirectly of that as well (maniac about getting classroom in order, bummed about class lists, you know, etc, etc...). I'm doing the PDR too - hope you feel better by then!Progman2000https://www.blogger.com/profile/04084535988452978656noreply@blogger.com
