7 Months Today! Update
June 11, 2014 | |
Hi everyone,
Today marks seven months since I went under the knife to repair my torn left Achilles. I’m happy to say, I’m about 80 per cent back to normal! Sorry it’s been so long since my last update. Since then I’ve
- Gotten medically cleared for full activity and finished PT
- Ran a 5k warrior dash (doing another this weekend, and a 4mile spartan in July)
- Biking to work everyday
- Played some softball
- Ran a 7:30 mile
- Planning for the Chesapeake Bay Bridge 10k for my one year anniversary of surgery.
There is still some morning stiffness, or tension after a lot of activity, air travel, or sitting at my desk, and the scar is pretty dry. So, I’m keeping up with stretching and at-home PT, plus athletic training.
Reading your stories continues to be a major source of motivation and inspiration. For those that are just starting out, know that with hard work, patience, and a positive attitude, you CAN GET THERE!! And that the journey continues …
good luck with you recoveries and keep writing!
cheers,
coast2coast
