I haven't had many entries lately because honestly I haven't had much to say. I'm swimming regularly, doing some core work, but not really doing much else. I have a training plan from Coach Sandra and I'm following it to the best of my ability...although there have been some days that I just didn't feel like going to the gym.
I had my pre-op appointment with my doctor earlier this week. I got some good news - the recovery process is not going to be as bad as I had expected! I will not have to use crutches or a scooter or anything - I will be able to walk on it right away! Of course I have to wear the boot, but I can walk on it. Also, I will be able to swim as soon as I get the stitches out.
I was expecting a much more difficult recovery process. Of course it's going to be painful...and I can't drive for 2 weeks...and the first 5 days are the most crucial to make sure I stay off it as much as possible.
After my doctor appointment, my foot has been hurting more than ever. I think it's probably all just in my head, but I am so glad that the surgery is next week. I really want to have the surgery and get started on the road to recovery.
Read along with my blog as I discuss weight, schedule and life challenges as I try to get my triathlon training back on track. I will also discuss what I've learned along the way and what new goals I'm setting for myself.
