I missed my day 1600 summary, I'll add that to the end of this post. I did end up getting an MRI for my opposite knee from the blunt force trauma. Turns out the bone was all fine, and it's just anterior soft tissue swelling. Just going to take time. I'd say it's maybe 90% better at week 16 post initial accident. That's a long time for no actual damage! In late July, I did a really big hike, like super steep and super long. I knew it was a bad idea, but in the end I started up some IT band issues on my ACL leg. It start during the long decent, about half way down the mountain. All in all the hike was about 8 hours long. Not a great idea when I was just coming off a long downtime period with no hiking. Anyway, that's my current situation. I cannot run on roads right now (I was earlier, but it would set it off again). I miss trail running, hard to believe I was running 1 hour on trails back in May! I will get there. This pushes back my return to sport testing as well. Early in the year we were thinking July, but too many setbacks happened. Maybe it will be September? I meet with my PT this month. I would like to segue into the sports specific training. Skiing is like 4 months away. Most remote coaching plans for this stage are 12 weeks long. I want to get a jump on it because I know there will be set backs! I don't know how this transition looks just yet, hopefully I'll have a better game plan by the end of this month! Biking post IT band flare up - there was a time it was bad even flat road biking was not good! Because I missed my 100 Day Summary on day 1600, I'm going to recap it here now, with my day 1600-1700 predictions at the bottom!
