I&#8217;ve been feeling pretty good actually, both my foot and knee have been feeling a lot better lately. \u00a0Not that my knee has hurt too much since the swelling went away a few weeks ago, but there has been some slight pain and tightness when I bend it too much. \u00a0The biking has been going really well, though after two hilly rides my knee hurt a little more than usual. \u00a0It is also hard to remember to take my antibiotics, though I&#8217;ve only actually forgotten once. \u00a0On Friday I&#8217;m not sure why I decided to ride to work, it was raining and in the 40&#8217;s. \u00a0Obviously, I got soaked and even my windbreaker pants got soaked through. \u00a0Good thing I had planned on changing at work. \u00a0The ride home was still cool but not raining. \u00a0Then on Friday and Saturday night we had frost\/freeze warnings out, yuck. \u00a0Actually, during the day on Saturday there was hail\/snow coming down occasionally.

I didn&#8217;t think to do any research, but strapped on the belt, hopped in and started jogging in place. \u00a0It is actually rather boring, but it helped that I started doing little circles in my lane. \u00a0I jogged for 10 minutes and didn&#8217;t feel my heart rate really coming up at all, even after I increased my turnover so I swam for 150 meters before jogging for 5 more minutes. \u00a0After any good pool time a hot tub is a must and that felt relaxing! \u00a0Have you ever aqua jogged?
