Why I love swimming

Because its the only thing I can do that does not result in pain in my knee. I have a list of swim workouts I should have been doing to get back into shape but frankly I couldn't stand all the organization right now. Mentally the thought of structured training for swimming and cycling without the running is kind of like being a "Q without a u".

So, for the past week I've been to the pool nearly every day sometimes twice and am back up to a long slow distance swim of 45 minutes. The PT told me I could also try aquajogging but after a long swim workout something about that motion just ate my legs up so I will try again this weekend.

Went to Ortho yesterday who basically said give it 6-8 weeks MORE and if its not better it would then be time to consider cortisone. I told him look I have a Half-Ironman in May two months is too far off to start running to which he bascially responded 'oh well'.Sean Mayhew

I will be doing the Escape Clermont race on the 27th as relay I will be doing the swimming and the cycling and Brent the running.
