WOO HOO!

Ya, I didn't think of how boring it would be.

I did not want to post up stitches with no warning, but it did indeed leave a mark.

Good to hear! Glad you are able to get back at it!

WOOOOOO  HOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

See this absolutely made my day! 

I guess I don't hang out in COJ enough to know the back story to this.  But I'm sure that having to be off normal activity for four weeks due to surgery is zero fun for a fitness minded person, or anyone for that matter.  Good for you for jumping back into the swing of things as soon as possible.  

Let the adrenaline rushes begin!

I deserve everything I get. But if you repeat that to me, I will deny it.

Thank you so much every one. And Jeff, it will be a while before I tangle with you again.

Glad to hear the good news. As others have said E Z does it...... 

The most important workout will be the one you can do the next day. 

It's actually a really "cool" scar. 

You keepin it chill this weekend, PM?

This is good news!  I bet it felt great, that is awesome to get back into it.

More biking and swimming today. A whole 700 yrds. I was going to do 1000, but I am actually trying to take it easy.

Then it was date night with best woman in the world. Dinner, movie, and ice cream.

I think I am going to set up my trainer tomorrow.

Sounds like a good night!  What flavor ice cream?  Blue Moon?

The trainer does not sound as much fun , enjoy it though.

Cold Stone... chocolate peanut butter with heath bars.... OMG, maybe I have a disease!

The trainer will be much better than the recumbent or spin bike at the gym. It will give me motivation.

....... I have never been to a Cold Stone, they have one in the town I live in.  I didn't know they made chocolate peanut butter with heath bar ice cream.....  I just may have to make a visit or ten to Cold Stone.

So another follow up with doc.... no running till 3 months, and it is possible nerve damage is permanent, even though he thinks it is unlikely. From here he said it would probably be a long slow frustrating process. Back is doing fine though.

However, I can do all the no impact stuff I want. So it is going to be weights and swim 3 times a week, and the trainer the other days. Went back to work this week, accomplished nothing.

Trying to decide which half marathons to sign up for, and I am going to do the new Boulder 70.3 in June next year. Considering Ironman boulder in 15. I guess I have milked this long enough....
