While pushing some very heavy stuff at work the other day I felt a sharp twinge on the outside of my left knee. It felt a little funny all that day, but the next day it felt better. Not great, but better. So naturally I went running after getting of work and after running it felt a little stiff and sore, but I was running some tough hills so I didn't think much about it.
The next 2 days I didn't run any, but my knee still felt funny. At this point I was a little worried (I have a 50K coming up and my training volume is starting to increase) that I might have a legit issue.
When I woke up on Sunday (4 days after the incident) it geeky fine, so I went for a 15 mile run. It felt a little stiff in the beginning, but so did everything else, and after about 3 miles everything was all gravy!
After the run it felt fine. We went to the park and had a little picnic and then played a round of disc golf.
This was my guest tune playing disc golf, and on the first throw I tweaked the ever loving mess out of my knee and have pretty much been in pain every since.
After doing some research, it seems that is my LCL that's damaged towards the bottom where it attaches to the Fibula.
I have a Dr appt this evening, but I tend to be a little leary of most Drs (except you guys, which is why I'm posting this here!)
Any ideas?
