I tried to soak in cold water in the tub Saturday after our run, but my tub's too small!! I couldn't get my knees down low enough to get them under the water without running the water too high. What an odd problem to have. So last night I went to the guest bathroom and just sat down in the tub, fully clothed, just to make sure I could fit next time. It's just the way the tub is made, but dang. I felt so awkward trying to get down in my own tub.
That Saturday run was really tough for me -- very hot. My knee felt ok most of the time during the run, although I could feel it a bit more on the trail part. I thought I was fine, but afterwards, couldn't use that leg to help stand from a seated position. It's better today, but waaahhhhh!!
And I'm going to have to wear suspenders on my race ready shorts. I ran the entire 8 miles holding the drawstring Saturday. I'm going to have to learn how to tie a good drawstring soon. So far I'm not nuts about the race ready shorts, but I'm not giving up. I'll cinch them suckers up and keep on truckin'. I am glad I had my goos though. It's what got me through the run. I'm going to continue trying variations on this theme and figure out what works for me.

I'd say TMI! Seriously, you should of given me some of those snacks that were weighing your shorts down! As far as the knee goes, a bag of frozen veggies will do the trick on that knee. I like to put them in a gallon ziplock bag(so the won't be ruined for future consumption)and wrap it with a moist dish towell.
