"Run when you can, walk when you have to, crawl if you must."
I'm not sure who to credit this quote to, but it holds a lot of truth. I've been forced to walk through several injuries, but I've learned to heed my body's warnings a little better than I used to. Tonight was definitely a "walk" night. I somehow ended up with a bruised quad Tuesday night after taekwondo class. I ended up walking my mile the next day, as my leg was really hurting. And after class last night, I decided to see if I could handle a run. I made it through alright wearing a knee sleeve, but it probably would have been wiser, to just take it easy.
Tonight I was back to a walk. I can tell that it is finally starting to heal a little, so I'm hoping that by tomorrow, after a good solid night's sleep, that I'll be back to running again. This walking stuff takes FOREVER. But better to walk than crawl!
