Today is day 5 of no running for me. I am doing the Portage Lakes Olympic distance triathlon on Sunday, so that will be exactly 1 week with no running. My knee doesn’t hurt, but I can tell it’s still not right. It’s hard to explain…but it definitely feels different than my other knee so I decided to make an apt. with the person E-Speed saw. He specializes in knees, so hopefully he’ll figure out what the heck I did. (It was funny because when I called to make the apt. one of the first things the girl asked after I told her I wanted to make an apt. was ‘which knee is it’ - I didn’t even tell her it was my knee - so I guess that’s the only thing he sees people for.) I think Todd is doing the Duathlon Sunday, so it will be fun having both of us racing. I haven’t biked since GCT, mostly because of the incredible pain that I was in on the bike, so let’s hope that biking doesn’t kill me. I’m going to do this race just to have fun - my dad is coming to watch and probably take some video - should be a good time!

I took today off work because I needed a day to get things in order, call places that are only open during the week, run errands, etc. One of the things I had to do was pay my school bill and I found out that I have the option to do this EZ Pay thing - which kindly allows me to make 4 payments of $2,151 rather than one giant payment. How nice. Oh the fun things I could buy with that money. This semester I am taking a sustainable business class (which goes 2 semesters) and an organizational behavior class - both require a TON of reading - I wish I didn’t read so slowly. Hopefully this will all pay off, I sure know my undergrad. did.

Anyone else doing Portage Lakes Tri or Du?
