In belezura's absence, I am going ahead and am starting this month's thread. All you do is record how many minutes you work out for the month. You don’t really have to post every day, as long as you keep track of the minutes from previous days and post them. It is up to you...

Today was my first attempt at jogging since my injury and it went really well.

I only did a small amount listening to my body the whole time (a little hesitant even) but I'm happy to say I was pain free during the running segment so that's awesome.

In today's walk I incorporated 9 x 1 minute running intervals in my (mostly) power walk. Spaced them out about 2, 3, 4 minutes apart. I was tempted to do more but I held back - felt pretty good only minor discomfort briefly in my knee about halfway through. I would say it went well. (Had both knees taped).

Saw physio yesterday. I am pleased that I am cleared to do light running/jogging, walking, yoga and pilates. No kickboxing until I'm pain-free though (which might be a couple months). I will keep taping my knees for runs and rehab exercises (which I will continue to do) and see how I go.

Had a good power walk/interval run session today. Stopped just as I felt my left knee getting a little 'tired'.
