Water jogging and getting my *ss kicked

Yesterday I went out and did water jogging for 20 minutes in a pool. I felt that my heart rate got up a bit, but not as high as if I was running on land. My knee definitely felt better for it, though it still is nagging me.

Today I was supposed to go for an easy ride with a friend, but I should have known better. We were going out for a two-hour easy spin with another guy. What I forgot is that easy for them is hard for me these days as I am just not in shape like I used to be. I had a nice time on the bike and really miss the hours in the saddle. I simply enjoy getting out on the road and pushing myself along. After the ride, my knee was a bit stiff, but too bad. I am still pretty nervous to try and run on it. I think I will take Monday off and run on Tuesday and see how it feels.
