Def a slow month!! But nice meet Monty!
That was a lot of racing. Well done.
I have not been in yet, I miss it more than you know, and am aching to get back into the pool. The ankle is healing but oh man, that was a very deep wound. I think I might be able to get in next week sometime, if I can not walk around too much with it. But the wife has other ideas w going to NYC this weekend so, that might set me back. Sadly.
Otherwise the shoulder seems to be back. If I reach that right arm across and try to scratch over the top of my left shoulder it will let me know that it is not happy. But I have spent 4 of the last 5 days in my gym in the basement doing strength work. Step ups and push ups. Im up to 20 min straight through of 12 push ups on the even min and 10 single let 20" step ups (no extra weight) on each leg on the odd minutes. Gets the HR up and keeps me engaged. Then Ill do some other stuff to just not be a total waste.
But its now 3 weeks and day from being in great shape in the pool and on the bike and in the gym to basically starting over. UGH!
I also need this ankle to heal for skiing and skinning!
Enough complaining... keep the swim posts coming!
Happy Holidays everyone. Whatever you celebrate, CELEBRATE! Life is short.
