More than Halfway There… I hope!
It’s been about five official weeks in recovery mode. My last run was April 31 and my next run can’t come soon enough!
I had a check-in with the doc last week and he said everything is progressing well. He wanted me to wait SIX MORE WEEKS before we talk about getting me back to running, but I bargained him down to four, so I see him again on June 26 and hope at that time to be able to add back in some running. In the meantime, I’ve been spending lots of time at the Presidio Y recumbent biking, spinning, AMT Trainer-ing and swimming.
I hope to step up the endurance crosstraining and drop a few pounds (see Rob’s post about our 90-day sprint), so that once I get back to running, it’s just a matter of getting my legs back up to the task. With any luck, I have my fingers crossed for a leisurly jog of the SF Marathon second half, but I’ll solidify those plans once I get a few runs in.
In the meantime, I’m playing personal chef and nutritionist for Rob, and, what with being unemployed, will be sure to share that with you all in daily updates.
Woo hoo! Nice to hear that things are moving in the right direction for ya smurf!
