Thanks so much for your kind words! :-...Hi Natalie! Thanks so much for your kind words! :-)<br /><br />I've had my share of injuries in the past - and its really hard to stay motivated when you're struggling. Luckily over the past 1-2 years I've been fortunate to not have any significant injury problems. Andrea has had to deal w/ some setbacks recently, and she is awesome about staying focused, cross training, and keeping a positive attitude. The last one (attitude) is the hardest, but most important.<br /><br />I had a slight runner's knee issue this winter. The keys for me were to try to massage all around my knee with my thumbs and break up any inflammation / tissue / fluid buildup. Additionally, I worked hard on my quads and hamstring w/ a rolling "stick" to get the adhesions out of those muscles - that takes the pressure off the knee.Jakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11785417482981091644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457976615750087084.post-70770961349528497382012-03-07T10:18:02.598-07:002012-03-07T10:18:02.598-07:00I am going to be living like a monk! :-)I am going to be living like a monk! :-)Jakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11785417482981091644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457976615750087084.post-80547719336564566762012-03-07T10:12:14.349-07:002012-03-07T10:12:14.349-07:00So glad you posted about the documentary again.
