Things are looking up.
Knee pain is gone. Stopped the ibuprofen and still taking glucosamine sulphate. Saturday squash has been cancelled but I will try myself at a 20 minutes jog on Sunday and see how it goes...
Yup...
Off running. Off Squash and off cycling.
On: ibuprofen and rest. MRI scan whenever there is spare place at the local specialist hospital (1 or 2 a month according to my GP...).
Mood: Grumpy
... now with added injury.
I was full of good intentions. A start to my training programme for the Ednburgh marathon this coming May.
It was supposed to be a walk in the park. a combined 8 miles jog and a game of squash.
On my way back from the sport centre (4 miles + a game of squash + 2 miles), I started to feel a slight twinge on the inside of my right knee. and it now hurts... The pain is not something I would describe as muscular. It feels quite deep within the joint.
It does hurt when I:
- do a twist on my knee,
- go up some stairs applying pressure on my right knee.
- keep my leg still and then try to move *for example, at night*
I am going to see my GP today. I suspect I will not be running again this week!

A Wii to my daughter. She loves it! (and so do I!)
The Wii is very popular in the household.
Mii Channel is getting a lot of attention (20+ Miis!). Wii Sports and Boxing gets a lot of airtime. Zelda is catching up.
Nice and useful stuff over on YouTube

Picking the Christmas goose today from Feller's. Yet I have yet to decide on how to cook it.
Confit? Cassoulet? Pot au feu (it is a stew)? Roast?
