Ouch! OUCH! Ouch!

Getting old sucks! Okay, so I'm really not that old in the whole grand scheme of things, but playing basketball for 15 years really puts a lot of wear and tear on your body. Making your body SEEM like it's older than it really is. I had every intention of getting up this morning and going for a couple of miles with the dog. He hasn't been out in a week and really needed to get a move on. But alas, when I woke up my knee was SCREAMING!!! It hurt like crazy. Nothing like tendonitis to put a halt to all activities relating to a triathlon. This sucks. I was going to ride the bike yesterday, but it had started to hurt then (just al ittle twing, nothing major) and I was exhausted after work, So I was a lame-o and didn't go, kinda glad I didn't, cause then my knee would have REALLY hurt today. Yeah, so going up and down stairs is not fun, nor is getting up from sitting down. I know I said this already, but this really sucks. So for the week, I will be sucking down the Advil and using the ice, and hoping that it goes away by Monday so I can at least get on the bike then. Here's hoping.
