Since I really want to have a sold documentation of a first point recovery, I needed to add another post. And likely will add more as the year progresses.
I feel pretty much 100% most of the time, however it is definitely not read for full on soccer type activities. I played 3 hrs of soccer with the kiddos a week ago and it was sore for 5 days. It felt a bit loose and odd. I didn’t notice it most of the time, however when I did it was a good reminder that the last few percentage points of healing will take some more time. I will revisit soccer occasionally and see how it reacts as I go to see how it heals. I skipped my weekly run last week to let it recover. I guess I will see how it feels this week and if it is back to normal when I run midweek. I haven’t felt any pain or discomfort at all in my knee when running, so I hope this is still the case. If it feels bad, I’ll know that I really pushed it way too far a week ago.
The on the bike news is good. I had my first ride where I felt like my old self on Sunday. So the legs and lungs are starting to come back. I am almost to the point where I might consider entering a weekly crit or something crazy…
