Hit the Reset Button

For over two months, I've been nursing my right Achilles which has taken me off the road. Physical therapy is a part of the weekly routine now, and things are improving. They've improved enough that I signed up with a personal trainer last Monday and will be working with her / them for the next 3 months while I focus on strength and flexibility. After just a week I can already tell it's making a difference.

I ran two weeks ago, and it wasn't a pain free experience. After letting it recover and getting everything else stronger, I'll likely give it another shot this week. Regardless, I'll be seeing my trainer at least twice this week and perhaps three times and physical therapy will be another two times. I'll also be doing work outside the gym as I look to gain energy during work. I'll walk each day and do some kind of training every day.

Nutrition is a big part of working with my trainer, which is nice. As I regain fitness, I'll look to lose some weight along the way.

Since things were derailed for much of the past couple months, we'll hit the reset button and start logging activity here.
