I suffered an intertrochanteric fracture (high on femur, just outside hip joint) as a result of bike wreck on May 25. Had surgery on the day of the accident, with the placement of two rods and a screw permanently in the femur. I am doing all the PT and exercise as directed by the medical folks and making pretty good progress. MD indicated I should be able to return to bike within 10-12 weeks but that running was much less clear cut. I was hoping to get some feedback on what I can expect as far as actually getting back out there running and biking from people who have gone through similar injuries.
I am 58, male, have competed in IM and triathlon generally for 25 years. In good condition at the time of the accident, for an old guy anyway. Any feedback, stories, etc would be appreciated.
