Yep, that's it. I pulled my quadricep. Perhaps my beginning workout was a little too enthusiastic.
Jessica, thanks for that site, even though it wasn't for me!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, flaming otters, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I got my running shoes at New Balance--I needed someone to watch me walk and decide what was best for my feet because I'm clueless. But it's about as close as the nearest Foot Locker, so no big deal out of my way.
Will someone make me hungry enough for dinner?
This is TOTALLY the place to discuss Grey's Anatomy! But I think most people won't have seen it yet.
Are you running or walking? Or both?
Alternating because I'm just getting started again after a loooong absence. It feels pretty good though. I'd love to get back into yoga. It's an excellent complement to the running. I have tapes and DVD, but you know how that goes...
I love New Balance for the shape of the shoes. My feet are wide and square, but the light weight and breathability of the Nike shoes have won me over. My feet get very warm. Ages ago when I did marathons I packed a couple extra pair of socks in my fanny pack to keep my feet cool and dry. Changed socks at 9 and 18, also an excuse to sit down for a minute.
eta: and when I have to edit to put in the word I meant to type it means bedtime. G'night natterbugs.
Oh, Perkins, I think I'd cast Victor Webster as the pretty pilot
I like that choice. Was tonight the season finale?
It was, Perkins, but the next season starts next week.
Watching 24. I hate how long it'll be before I can go back and read the comments here.
However, 8 minutes in, my thought patterns went a bit like--yay! it's back! guest starring Haysbert? Why only...whubbuh? Waaaah! Oh, yay, it's back! ::weeps::.
The freaky-looking but useful muscle map says I have pulled the sartorius, a thing I didn't know I had. Cool.
I'll have to chime in late on the GA discussion, since by the time the West Coasters have seen it, I'll be asleep. Bedtime starts... now.
I went to that site and it wanted to know if I under- or over-pronated, and I've only ever heard of just plain pronation, so I'm confused...
meara, over-pronation means your arches are most likely flat, and you roll too far inwards when your foot strikes the ground. Underpronation or supination means that your arches are high and don't collapse properly, making you run on the outside of your feet. I hella supinate, and therefore need cushioned shoes to compensate for my arch not absorbing the shock.
I haven't run in quite a few months, but I've been yoga-ing and weightlifting. Maybe I'll run tomorrow. Toward the Embarcadero, which is fairly flat. Flatter than most of my nabe, anyway.
My pronation is wrong, but I forgot how. (eta: From Juliana's post, it sounds like I'm over pronated.)
I wish I could jog. I wonder if I can see a specialist who could ascertain if my old knee and ankle injuries would allow jogging. (For the knee injury I was told that jogging was something I couldn't do, but that was 14 years ago. When I broke my ankle I was told that I "probably" couldn't jog anymore.)
