.. or knees. Well yesterday and today things nosedived quite a bit. I went cycling 50km, haven't done that far before and I pushed myself quite a bit and 40km in I started getting knee pain. It's on the outside of both knees so I guess IT Band pain? So that's limiting me at the moment, couldn't walk well at all this morning although this afternoon it's getting more comfortable. So first off - how do I avoid this happening again? 50km isn't much for most cyclists so I'm not sure it was that and me pushing or whether I need to adjust my bike I've had trouble with the seatpost slowly dropping). Also I'm hoping I'll be okay by Thursday for zumba, maybe too soon? No idea. Also I met up with my boss and fellow couple of seasonal workers today to be told there's no work probably for a month, maybe longer, when we've been off for most of last month as well. Along with that our family dog needed urgent surgery yesterday for pyometra, she's recovering okay today thankfully. So it's all getting me down a bit right now :/
