Road To Recovery Series: Treadmill Fun.

What an ecstatic feeling to be finally back on the treadmill. Today I did my usual physio session but with some bounding movements on the trampoline. I ran at a pace of about 6.2 km/h which I was duly impressed with. I have a home program that I will be starting in the next two days. Tomorrow I will try to get back into the pool again because it has been a tremendous help for my recovery process. The snail’s pace on the treadmill gave my cardio system a kick in the pants, which just showed how unfit I have become. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Finally, I feel that I will be back on the road to full recovery with an eventual return to the soccer field in a few months. Mark over at A Passion For Running has been going through the same feelings of exhilaration of finally being able to run, and the overly cautious tone that something may go wrong again. I feel it too, but if you never take the first step to get back to full recovery, you may end up balancing a brewsky on an overly big belly watching the national geographic channel, because you never bothered getting back into peak condition. As Mark states…Onwards!
