218.5 -- not a big loss in the last week, but I'm at the time of the month when I usually gain, so I'll take it!

I gained 9 lbs over Christmas + injuring my knee and not being able to work out. But I'm 219.9 again and back in this group! It feels good to be back down close to my pre-holiday weight.

Just checking in real quick. I haven't run since the end of last week because I went skiing and had a kind of epic fall and tore my medial collateral ligament. I've been resting for several days...

For whatever reason, when I do indoor cycling class twice a week, no IT band problems, but as soon as I back off, they creep up.

I'm running in Brooks Pure Connects, though I might switch to something else for the winter. They suck on snow and I don't always want to wear yak trax or similar.
