Friday: 121 seconds of plank, 11 minutes of yoga for runners, 31 minutes of Strength training, followed by 6.6 km of (0°C), picked up groceries, and walked home.

I tried dialingmy running back this week, and I think I have to try and take next week off completely and possibly book an appointment with my doctor to see what she thinks is going on.

@WTL fingers crossed for a minor injury and I hope you recover soon!

@s1m0n4 Thanks! TIL where the fingers crossed (probably) came from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossed_fingers

@WTL Interesting!

"It gained traction, especially in 16th-century England, where people crossed their fingers to ward off evils and ill health."
That's still the most common usage in Italy and France.
In Italy another way is to touch iron or more generally metal. This comes from the expression "an iron health", i.e. someone who never gets sick.

@WTL Bummer. You have a good habit with alternatives at least. Hope doctor is a good one.

@recollir She's great, actually, young, smart, curious, and a runner. I've been adding the alternatives to keep up the workout while cutting down on the actual running. But, they don't seem to hit the same level of workout as running. 🤷🏻

@WTL hate to hear your knee continues to be problematic. Wise to get it looked at. Hopefully your doctor will get you sorted and back on track soon.🤞

@WTL ouch, any potential injury?

@denisdepalatis The right side of my right knee has been twinging for a bit now - only when running, walking and cycling is fine. The internet has suggested a few possibilities, but I'd like someone with some real training to have a look-see.

@WTL yes, having a “real” doctor look at it is always best. I hope this is nothing too serious.
