Day 19: On the mend


On day 19 of recovery. Sense of humor is an invaluable component of health and healing. Laughing doesn't rock the body with so much pain these days. I did sneeze yesterday. That was a vivid reminder. Body exclaims, "Yes, aside from other bones, you did break six ribs as a result of your crash."


Moving forward. Things are much better. This is good. Without any unforeseen complications, the recovery phase will pan out as a steady climb in a positive direction. I'm looking forward to some level of normalcy. In the mean time I'm very cautious and controlled in my movements. Of course I accepted that my next race will be sometime next year. There's no hurry to get back on the road (Never imagined I'd say that). I will get on a trainer soon though. I've always used rollers...never really got on a fixed trainer?
