The Piper is down!

And she's not just pissed (that will only make sense if you know and love "So I Married an Axe Murderer" as much as I do).

About a week to ten days ago as I was happily training for the 10K on Feb 11th, I started noticing that my knee was really hurting when I'd run, so I told my friend Ashley (who's currently training...or should be...for the London Marathon) about it, and she said it sounds like I have Runner's Knee (I'm making an appointment with my GP to have it checked out). This is sooo not according to plan. I, being the sensible one I am, won't do silly things like go running despite the pain and potential further damage that could cause, except that this morning I woke up and desperately wanted to. I suppose the good thing is that it's making me go back to the gym more, but oh! I want to run. Free...like the wind!

Oh, the plight of an elite athlete (hey, who's that snickering?)
