The Take Home Message

Denise & MassBike,

I know you're right. One day I over did it (sat at the computer for more than 2 hours - sheesh!) and the next day I paid. But, it's like cycling. When you feel good - you just keep going & don't think about having to ride all the way back!

I'm scheduled off work until Jan 17, but might go back for a few hours/day next week on a mon/wed/fri basis. There is no way I can jump right back into 8-9 hours of sitting at my computer.

A funny note - my surgeon is a brand new cyclist as of Christmas. He was complaining about paying $150 for pedals, etc. If I had his money, I'd throw mine away!! I joked with him about the routes he road - told him that it would be very bad if I passed him on my bike next week.

Oh, Dogmama...injuries are so hard. Hang in there. I think staying sane while injured/recovering is harder than the physical recovery. Denise is right, it's your attitude (brain) that's really under pressure to perform right now!
