Where has Dean been?

Well, it’s been a busy 3 weeks since my last update. There have been road trips and adventures galore! I’m pretty much as mobile as a person on 1 leg and crutches can hope to be. No issues moving around or getting through life. I’ve been seeing my Physical Therapist Jon for the past few weeks and he’s been doing a great job getting me to fire the muscles that I’ll need once the crutches go away. He is also a triathlete and understands my desire to get back out there.  I’ve picked a potential next 70.3, the Crystal Coast Half Booty tri in May of 2019. (https://fsseries.com/event/crystalcoasttri/). I’ll definitely post my training program once that gets started.

What else? Oh, my good friend Tanner gave me a great deal on a Wahoo Kickr snap. I’ve sourced all the connecting pieces to connect my laptop to the TV and get it ready for some zwift fun.

Went lap swimming once, did a 1000m set with no issues and am considering doing the parents relay at Morgan’s swim meet on Saturday. Definitely will have to post pictures if I do.

Been in the gym working on upper body, core, shoulders, and back about every other day. Been getting to yoga about 3x’s per week and it’s been nice to be in the room. Modify like a champ!

1 week and 5 days left on crutches and then I will have a Platelet rich injection into my knee. Hopefully that means I will be walking semi normal then.

Feeling hopeful!
