I'm actually not going to wear the sparkle shorts as planned, I put my workhorse black silk sparkleskirt under the petticoat and it's perfect. Not only have I trained in it, it helps poof the petticoat out a bit. Perfect!

Put it somewhere you can see it and remind yourself that it'll all be okay while we're waiting for the race (less than 5 weeks). I can't wait to see your costume in person!

I've heard of runners who after they start adding the leg lifts, getting rid of runners knee in a few weeks or less. They key is start adding the strength training after your out of the pain zone. <br />I don't have runners knee, but I've had torn cartlidge in one knee for years, but as long as the muscles are strong around it, I never even can tell there is a problem there.<br />Listen to your body and it will tell you what you are ready to do:) If your still struggling come race week, visit a Dr. and get a cortizone injection about 2-3 days before the race, and you'll likely be pain free for the run and can enjoy it! Love the costume, so cute!!!Runaway Bridal Plannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18436851320623647572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541924416172709944.post-68751038784002495172014-01-20T06:54:37.941-08:002014-01-20T06:54:37.941-08:00Yes!

I think this bout just came on because of overuse, so I'm hoping the rest and quad strengthening helps!

Runner's knee usually means you have weak quad muscles and your knees can't support it. While you are resting trying doing some leg strengthening exercises. Leg lifts with weights maybe. After my runs in the park, I go over to the picnic tables and step up on the bench seat about 15 times per leg. This is my post race ritual to make sure I'm still working on my leg muscles. I haven't had that type of knee pain since. I remember it use to get so bad that I couldn't even squat or kneel on the floor. I remember going through this so I just wanted to share ( sorry this post got long)! Hope this helps!Fairytales and Fitnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11771224209536216240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541924416172709944.post-67445392282907884262014-01-20T05:38:10.402-08:002014-01-20T05:38:10.402-08:00Thanks Karen!

However, race day went fine and all was ok! Take the time you need and let it heal. Your costume is adorable, by the way! :DKaren Sealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01859540994687133829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8541924416172709944.post-38965472589377848202014-01-20T04:22:04.872-08:002014-01-20T04:22:04.872-08:00Oh that is going to be so cute!!!
