Recovery is going well. I saw the surgeon last Thursday and he was happy with progress. He cleared me for spin class and to swim once the incision had healed just a little more. I didn't do either until Monday. I mean, where would I find the time between the World Cup, Wimbledon - and now the Tour de France? Oh, and there was Afton...
But Monday I decided it was time to get off the couch and try to undo some of the damage that goes hand in hand with two weeks of zero activity. I know, 2 weeks is not that long but for someone who can't sit still outside the environs of a yoga class it seemed waay too long. Pool running felt good so I decided to try an easy spin class after that. All good. Tuesday and this morning another spin class and swam with the group last night at the lovely 50M outdoor pool in New Hope. OK - not exactly baby steps but taking it pretty easy and all low impact activities. Might do a yoga class over the weekend and then the boot can come off Monday. To be honest I think I am walking better without the boot these days than with it but I will do as I am told. And for the most part I am sitting down at work so I can just take it off and put my feet up. Yes, it is still considered work.
