Elliptical/ Doctor Visit

December 11, 2009 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Elliptical

Weather: Inside Veale

Comments:
I ellipticalled with Chris Kelly again, which was nice and much better than doing so alone. We talked about running, politics, society, and drinking and the hour was over quickly. I again managed to sustain my heart rate near 175. My knee was not an issue at all.

The doctor thinks it is a case of inflamed plica, which means I can start running again, in consultation with the trainers, who defered to Coach. I'll then follow whatever starting-to-run-again schedual she sets up.

I did the Ibis and the first lifting day, minus the step-ups (Chris the trainer says no). My knee 'twinged' a bit from that, but felt very good today overall. This MIGHT be the turning point in this whole injury mess.
