Weekly Review:
I had what I felt was a great week! I have not felt like my old self for so long and this week was the first week I felt normal again. It's been a really hard 5 months for me. All of my runs were solid runs for me this week. My knee has been feeling much better and from a cardio standpoint I am starting to feel a lot better. I have really missed the athlete in me for a long time.
I was able to get 1 swim in this week and I am planning on getting in another 2 this week. I will not be as busy working all over southern California this week so I will have some time to get a couple swims in. I am also hoping to get a couple bike rides in this week but I'll play it by year.
The patellar tendon is feeling good. I still know it's not 100% but its somewhere between 90 and 95%. I've been doing some exercises to try to help with some of my stabilizer muscles and maybe take some pressure off the tendon and so maybe that is starting to pay off. I'm acutally looking forward to running a marathon again, which is a big thing because if you asked me a couple months ago I would have told you I had no interest in it. I know I still have work to do, but this week was the kind of week I have been waiting months for.
