1 Year, 4 months later - 3 fantastic days of mountain biking in Moab, UT!
The AT held up well for three days of tough riding out at the ultimate mountain biking playground. For those familiar, we rode Slickrock, Porcupine Rim and Baby Steps. All are super trails and quite challenging. Overall my AT held strong and was only mildly sore at the end of each day. I am very grateful for a full recovery well enough to enjoy many of my favorite sports! I do not plan to return to basketball the offending sport as I really don’t want to repeat with the other leg. All the best to those recovering. You will get better. Just stick with your plan and work hard. Cheers, Bode

It sounds great, Bode!
Somewhere there’s a parallel universe where I didn’t return to competitive volleyball 7-ish years ago, and didn’t tear the other AT 8 years after the first. But I have trouble believing that the Norm in that universe had as good a time as I did, even with my second ATR! (And besides, he never discovered achillesblog.com!)

Bode - Sounds like you had a great time! I made the pilgrimage to Moab several years back and I know how challenging Porcupine Rim was with two good legs, so hats off to you as it sounds like you’ve made a full recovery. Keep enjoying all the things you love doing and have a great summer!
