Thanks guys. If the knee gets worse, I may yet resort to embarrassing myself in a crowded swimming pool. Actually, I don't think it's
that embarrassing, you see all kinds of people in pools doing aquarobics these days, from elite footballers to the oldies, so no drama there.
I queried my podiatrist yesterday about it, and he suggested taping the knee again, which I didn't think I needed to do anymore, but I guess it makes sense. I will try it tonight for my first midweek 5km.
The main thing is just to deal with it objectively and not dwell on it. The more I rabbit on about it, the bigger the question mark grows in my mind, and ... oh.
I'll shut up now.
