Well, rehab has officially begun…
“How can I go forward when I don’t know which way I’m facing?
How can I go forward when I don’t know which way to turn?
How can I go forward into something I’m not sure of?”
-John Lennon
Everything is pretty restricted. I am allowed to swim 500-1000 only 3x/week. I am running 10 x 80m 3x/week, working on my *new* run form. I am also allowed to cycle for 30:00 starting next week, but only a couple times.
Stretching and range of motion exercises every day.
Heat & ice, every day. Constantly.
This is the plan for the next 15 days.
If all seems improved after this block, then I get to double the above for another 15-day block. This is all so humbling…
I’m not feeling frustrated, really. It just is what it is.
Chuck thinks I may be able to do a Sprint by June. Wow… All this work so I can do a Sprint….
well, it will be here before you know it!! Maybe after the next 30 days of rehab, you’ll luck up and things your rehab will get better faster if you are really good about it now. Kinda like learning to run in zone 2 for the first time…got to be patient but then once you hit that “sweet spot” you get fast
see you soon, hon!
Hey Carole, good to see you are on the comeback trail. I had the pleasure of meeting Chuck at my USAT Level I clinic in ’04. Great guy, by far my favorite speaker of the entire clinic. Take care,Brett (Sportfactory guy)
Carole, glad to see prgress is being made. I know it seems slow, but it is progress. Hang in there, and am following you from California. You make the family proud.
Sharpie- I am getting back to the states soon and I have to talk to you on the phone. I just met with this guy Renzie that Gordo told me to meet with. I want to share with you what he told me but it has to be by phone! Lets plan to chat in the next week when I am in Canada or AZ.Keep it up!
