Crap!

Well, winter is here and in SF that means rain.  This is not our first rain of the year, but it's been long enough since the last one that it might as well be.

So I'm walking at lunch time.  Grabbed some lunch have my umbrella - just walking along minding my own business when WHAM!  On foot goes out from under me!  I didn't have a chance to even think.  My hands were full of food etc so I couldn't catch myself and instead landed smack on my knee!  I was to shocked and worried to be embarassed.  And totally pissed off that I might have really hurt myself - and not even while training!

I banged the knee pretty good.  Broke skin through my pants.  there are even little marks from the pebbles that are embedded into the sidewalk.  All of that I can deal with.  What I don't know is what the impact is going to do internally.  I've got it elevated and I packed on the ice.  Guess it's just wait and see now :(  Worse part is, training for a tri you use your legs for everything - swim, run, bike.  there's really not one of those I can turn to if this knee desides it's going to fuss a bit after this fall.  When I was lifting weights I could always focus on upper body if the lower gave out or vise versa, but this.
