Went to the physio this afternoon to get her to look at my knee. It’s not that sore, but it’s not perfect either and still feels a bit stiff. I want to get back to running, as I’m a bit behind in my 10K training plan which is pissing me off a little, and I decided it would probably be best if I got a professional opinion before pounding the pavement.

I rang this morning for an appointment and they enquired about my injury. I mentioned that I’d done it snowboarding, so she said, “we’ll put you with Ashley, she’s a skier as well”. I show up this afternoon and run through exactly what happened with Ashley. She asked had there been any other injuries at the weekend. I related the story of Tom being taken off the mountain by ski patrol, and it turned out that she was one of the members who’d helped Tom out. Small world ;-)

Anyway, after much pushing, prodding and tests it turns out that there’s nothing major wrong with my knee; just some strained tendons & ligaments. I’m allowed to swim, and light biking, but no running for at least a week, maybe more. Between that and the ski season I’ll get bugger all training done before September. Oh well, I’m doing that bloody 10K even if I end up walking it.
