As you know, I have been unable to up my exercise regimen to the level that I want it to be because I'm still pumping and don't want to deplete my milk supply. However, this week I have discovered that walking at the intense speed at which I've been walking (maybe it's my mechanics) hurts my knees. It pains like it did when I was a catcher. (Not quite as intense, but in the same area)
So, I started to run. Just to see if the pain subsided or continued. It left! I was surprised. My body wants to run just as bad as I do. I'm going to need to invest in a jogging stroller now. It's time.
But don't worry. Everyone who is doing the Wasatch Woman Love Your Body Race with me, I am still just walking. No going back on my word here. We will be boogying, but still walking.
Good Luck! Running is so good (and hard). Its the best.
