PBP Mini-Panic: Sore Knees
Ouch! My knees were hurting. Mostly my right.
Knees are important to cyclists, and I've come to understand that cycling is generally knee-friendly. And though I've had some knee issues over the years, I had come to a place where me knees were doing just fine.
But knee pain has struck again, and not at an opportune time just a matter of weeks prior to Paris Brest Paris. I visited the Physical Therapist this week, and we made a few tweaks. I've also been off the bike for a week, so things are settling down.
But I did panic a little. Knee pain now? Right as I'm trying to get a little faster, push a little harder?
Well, I've moved through the panic now, and I anticipate getting back on track soon. It is a good reminder though to stay focused, stay calm, and work through potential setbacks. We shall see.
Keep it bent, but not too sharply,
