Corny…I know, but I am so deal with it.  I went to a gym last night - first time since previous post on 4/28/09.  I did the elliptical for 10 minutes (first time in over 5 months since I did not use that machine once I hurt my knee).  The knee felt fine for the most part - there is a muscle that comes down your leg and wraps around your calf (I believe it is the ends of your hamstring muscle) that felt weak, but nothing abnormal.  I remember last year the same type of feeling.  Anyway, when I got home later, my knee cap was pretty sore so I iced and today it feels better.  It felt awesome to work out, even if it was for a short time!  I am looking forward to doing some more of that…haha.

Tonight I’m seeing a personal trainer at this place that only does 1-on-1 training.  Not sure I can afford this, but it’s a free first consult, and I’m curious to see what they have me do.

I plan on joining a gym by next week - waiting until we hit September (side note: how is it almost September?!? where did the summer go? :( ).  I’ll update again on how this training session goes.
