Determined!

My rehab is continuing as usual. I thought I was supposed to be done in October, but with the latest development that was discovered I am still working hard to get back to my normal state of activity. They are still undetermined about ski season...which bums me out more and more with each passing day. Ski season has started and I get to sit and watch as the team goes on their hikes. I feel bad that the new folks on the team that I am a mentor too have to deal with a mentor that is injured. Oh well....right?

I have started working out with a trainer one day a week and will be adding a second day...this is added with the 2 days of physical therapy that I am doing. But none of this is enough. From the lack of cardio since my injury I feel out of shape and sort of like the BLOB! It might sound irrational to a lot of people...but I am used to getting 4-6 days of intense cardio and now what I do is highly limited because of my knee....so I feel like I have developed a bit of a negative self image. I recognize that I am being foolish...but I can't help it...so I continue to plug along, trying to get where I used to be. And for those of you that know me, know that when I set my mind to something I am going to do it....the BLOB stops here dang it!
