Hey...
Well I'm trying to get back in the game here after having a ruptured achillies last May.
My quad/glute power is about equal bilaterally, but my poor left claf is like 60% smaller (size and power) than my right thanks to being in a cast for 14 weeks.
I can run for about 10 min but my left foot is essentially flat vs. ball of the foot striking on my right side. I am currently doing a circuit of 15 min eliptical/8 min easy run/5 min fast stairclimbing. I started this a couple of weeks ago.
I'm looking at an 8K mid march going up thru Wildflower in May for my first Tri.
Anyone out here suffer that kind of injury and how was it to get back into racing? Any particular tips and tricks to rebuild?
Thanks!
