5k Road Blocks

Doesn’t it suck when you are trying to eat healthy and you are trying to work out and you are getting really excited for your progress and then you hit a road block? Well that’s what has sort of happened to me and KJ over the weekend.

See, as I’ve said before we’ve been training really hard for our upcoming 5k, it’s this Saturday. So of course what happens? We BOTH are suddenly struck with knee injuries. I got mine when I was doing some workout videos from Jillian Michaels from The Biggest Loser, cardio kick boxing and getting up and down and up and down for the strength training workout. KJ got hers after a hefty 5 mile workout. She hyper extended it while standing in line after the walk.

What are 2 girls doing a 5k on Saturday to do? I guess our plan is lots of icing the knee’s, not pushing ourselves with anything to do with knee’s, knee wraps, resting and Advil. Hopefully we’ll be feeling better by Saturday because frankly, we’re doing that 5k even if we have to crawl across the finish line! And as we all know, road blocks were made to be pummeled through.

Update: I’ve also pulled my inner thigh muscle which is really painful. Still, we’re going to do it!
