Backdrops to limping

stats of the week: cycled 161 km, gym 3 h

While at least easy cycling is possible I am still limping after almost 5 weeks since the surgery. This is not the development I was hoping for. Some days show light improvement but are always followed by backdrops. First doubts appear if I will ever be able to run properly again. 

It is no good feeling to be back in Mollans in the Provence not be able to run. And cycling mountain passes is still forbidden after I experienced a significant backdrop after cycling 2 consecutive days.

However, we enjoy being in our small old village. Today was European open monument day and at the local expo we learnt that our little maison is more than 250 years old.












Comeback far away

stats of the week: cycled 30 km, indoor cycled 40 km, gym 3 h
stats of the previous week: indoor cycled 33 km, gym 2 h

Recovery is still very very slow with some backdrops in between. I still cannot walk without limping. Outlook seems to see a couple of months till a comeback. Half marathon Valencia is cancelled. Hopes are now to be back for December races.

Patience asked

stats of the week: none

Still struggling with problems after knee surgery. Cannot walk without limping, pain especially on stairs. After 14 days easy indoor cycling will be possible hopefully. 

Hopes to run the Valencia Half at end of October are gone. New target is to get fit in time for end of year events. Not happy with this development.
