Note
slept:9.2 weight:138.6lbs (injured) (sick) (rest day)
Feel like crap again today, worse than yesterday. Went out w/ Mike last night. Belayed him at climbing gym for about an hour, then went out to dinner.
Annoyed to end/start the year sick and injured. Oh well. Rest and get better. Sending off my reg to Wasatch today. I'd like to race at least once/month once I'm recovered but don't want to get ahead of myself w/ sending money. Since so many races fill so quickly now, that will give me the opp to do some different races than the usual. I'm looking forward to running in some new places in '11.

Skate Ski 1:03:30 [3] 7.1 mi (8:57 / mi)
ahr:152 max:184 slept:10.5 weight:138.2lbs (injured) (sick)
Good time at Solitude- stayed on lake and evergreen loops for mostly flat, little bit of climbing. No knee pain, except for some aching in both knees on the drive home. After getting warmed up, I felt not totally out of shape but definitely huffing it more than I would have liked.
Fun to get out and play at elevation in the mountains. Zero falls.
Feel like I've been fighting off a cold since yesterday. As I write this (5:30p), I feel feverish and have had a few bouts of brain rattling coughs. Gonna get to bed early, then decide in the AM if I'll go to PT or not.

bailed on leg press b/c it was hurting my knee- bummed me out after leg press felt great last week. Oh well.
hip machine- all 4 directions, each leg
balance on dynadisk w/ med ball and tramp.
Felt pretty worked after PT today. Probably dehydrated and low blood sugar. Everything is going well, though, acc'ding to George. I'm just tired of being injured, had a little pity party for myself and then got back to it. I even bounced a med ball into my nose- jeez. Kind of out of it today. Getting to bed too late.

Easy in the cold and gray. Had a little bit of ache in the knee at 25min, but then OK. Knee looked and felt good after the ride. Could have gone out longer but taking it easy. Psyched to run at PT tmw.
Yoga/ Stretching warm up/down 12:00 [1]

ahr:134 max:167 slept:9.4 weight:139lbs (injured) shoes: g.skin.6.20.10
I'll stop clicking the injured box when I can run outside.
Easy outside in the cold and partly sunny-ness. Got in a few short little climbs. No knee pain at all. I just want to make sure I don't overdo it. I think I almost took out Jeff Louder in the first couple minutes of my ride as I was warming up my knee. Just kidding. But, I think it was him in the BMC kit who passed me.
Hopefully, I'll be able to get out and ride a decent amount over the next few days. Skiing appears to be out until maybe the end of next week due to not much snow at Mt. Dell. I don't want to go anywhere else, pay $15+, and then find out my knee doesn't like the movement. Blah blah blah. Decent, low intensity ride today.

Wore the Garmin. I admit it. Felt good to get outside. Technically, this could be ultra training- brisk walking. Ha ha he he. Knee felt fine on ups and downs, aside from a couple quick little aches. Knee feeling good. Really not psyched to ride the trainer at all. Thighs are sore today from leg press on FRI. Tired of being injured.

At PT- Super easy, watched TV. Didn't want to get too sweaty like I did on Tuesday. I also wanted to have some energy to do better on the balance and stability exercises that I flailed on on Tuesday. Kinda getting tired of the stationary bike at PT.
Strength Training 30:00 [3]
*I was at PT for 2 hours tonight. But, I'm just putting 30min b/c, w/out rest, that might be the total "activity time." Trying to avoid "volume inflation," which is lame.
Leg press 3X 10 @160 lbs (15sec rest) - felt pretty hard still
Single Leg Press 2X 15 @60lbs (15sec rest)- Right leg felt hard. Left felt less so. Felt good though. Fun.
Hamstring curls- 3X 10 @ 65lbs (20sec rest)- felt moderately hard
Various other core and stability stuff:
3X 60sec side plank (3 sets each side)
3X 30+ sec plank handing tennis ball back and forth
Rt leg balance on bosu ball, playing catch w/ myself (using trampoline) w/ 4lb med ball- possibly my new favorite sport
Plus some other stuff w/ a Swiss ball that's not as hard or cool
Pretty good session tonight. Felt so rad to suffer a little and leave w/ rubbery legs. I no longer have a 20min ceiling on activity duration, just need to go by how my knee feels. Activities can be for conditioning, rather than simply regaining range of motion. No impact stuff or skate skiing yet.
Weather looking grim, so probably be spending some time on the trainer this weekend.

ahr:102 max:118 slept:7.0 weight:137.2lbs (injured)
Uninspired on the trainer after taking 1.5 hours f***ing hours to get home (usually takes 20). Traffic, bad drivers, grrr.
Knee ached a little too. Took my last Naproxen(?) on Tues PM. Not sure if not taking that anymore has anything to do w/ new feelings of achiness. Rode 1st minute w/ no shoe on rt foot, then clipped in w/ a sidi. Knee didn't seem to like being restricted that much, so I rode w/ no shoe then w/ running shoe for last 12 minutes.
Generally uninspiring w/ a bad attitude. Stretched for about a minute after but knee was aching. So, I just went to the couch to ice and elevate. PT tmw will hopefully be better. Would like to get in a ride outside this weekend, weather permitting (probably won't). Definitely not in the xmas spirit right now.

Super easy on stationary bike at PT. Not that psyched, so went easier than normal. Felt a kinda drained from first full week back at work. Knee swollen more than on Tues, so took a step back in recovery sorta. Not surprising. I wasn't able to stay off my feet as much today as yesterday. No pain though.
My knee flexibility is ahead of schedule at 125 degrees.

slept:7.5 weight:139.6lbs (injured)
Knee started to hurt and swelled a little around lunch today, which bummed me out. Came home and iced and elevated. No motivation, had a little bit of a pity party for myself. Definitely getting a little over-confident with how much I'm staying on my feet at work. Ice gel pak was pretty much worthless at work, so will probably take cooler w/ ice again tmw. Stay off my feet more, maybe ride the trainer tmw- TBD.
Just need to get thru the week, so I can sleep and stay off my feet all weekend. Really hoping to be cleared (and ready) to jog a bit sometime next week. Today felt like a little setback on the recovery road. Ugh. Gonna try to get to bed before 7:30 tonight. On a positive note (that I forgot today b/c of the bit of swelling), George said yesterday that my recovery so far appears to be "best case scenario." Be the ball, Noonen.

Balance and stretch stuff at PT after OK 2nd day back at work. Kids feel no sympathy for the injured teacher. The "honeymoon" of my return is over.
Little bit harder program on the stationary bike. RPE was kinda high for how low HR was staying. That giant saddle hurts my butt too. Good to breathe a little though. Felt cooked and hungry by the end of the session (~100min total at the PT office).

Easy on the trainer. Rode w/out shoe on right foot for first 13min to warm up leg a little. Last 7min w/ shoe one (warmed up leg could handle extra lift fine). Felt good to be moving my legs. No pain. Felt a little bit of an ache after 10min, so stopped for a few seconds, started again. Didn't feel it again.
Rode in 39X25 whole time. Trainer tension wheel-thing wasn't on my back wheel tight, so very little resistance at all- just wanted to get some motion in the leg.

slept:8.5 weight:141.4lbs (injured)
Didn't sleep that well. Definitely have a bad attitude today. Hopefully, I can burn off a little steam at PT today. Not sure if weight is right- said 141.4, 139.4, 143.4. Not that it matters...not on the wrestling team anymore.
Still can't really feel my knee. Haven't had to take any pain meds. Iced 20min on , 25min off pretty much ALL day yesterday. While doing towel-on-heel stretches, could hear fluid in my knee moving around- pretty gross (and disturbing).
Soldier on. One day at a time. Immobility is definitely affecting my view of the world right now, and it's not pretty. Breathe.
