Ruptured Oct 23. 2011. N.Y. maraton Nov. 2012?
Posted on January 5th, 2012 by tornj
My name is Tor, Norwegian 53 year male maraton runner. My hometown, Eivindvik “city” abt 300 inhabitants! 2,5 hours by car from Bergen (Fjord Norway Capital). Married to Anita; first time maraton runner Berlin 2011
I total ruptured my Achilles playing wolleyball (23.10.2011). Now, after 11 weeks Im “cycling ” and “skiing” in the gym, total “14 km” every second day, 45 min. Without pain. “Warming up” my leg is essential. Getting better every day. But still my ancle is a bit swelling, but no pain.
My wife and I are participating NY maraton nov. 2012. (possible ?) thanks!

Hi Tor–
I’m sorry you were injured–I fell & ruptured my right Achilles’ about a week before you did (the 18th of October)…
Sounds like you are doing well, I hope you will continue to post & let us know about your progress! I’ll keep my fingers crossed that you are ready to safely run in the NY Marathon in November…
