Day 11!!

Yes today was day 11 of my attempted come back. The first week was pretty rough both physically and mentally. The one is obvious, but the mental part I didn' t really expect. I thought shit everything will be great once I can start to workout again. I never thought I would feel like I had never run before, and I never thought I wouldn't be able to use my right arm properly. Just figured as soon as the clavicle was good to go all would be back to normal. WOW, how wrong I was!!
I have finally just in the last couple of days started to feel like I may actually be able to run right again. The biking has gone the best of all, I really didn't feel a huge drop off. The real concern now is when and if I am going to be able to start swimming. I have now 7 1/2 weeks until Kona, and haven't swam a stroke in over 5 weeks. So thus the mental part again. Thinking starts to go like this: here I am now killing myself to get my bike and run back to pre wreck, and if I can't finish the swim than it is for nothing, and of course I can't finish the swim until I can actually start the swim. Damn!!!
The good news is that Mary starts taper in 4 more days, and then 3 weeks later we head off to IMWI where I get to watch and train while Mary goes for the gold. It will be nice to get away for a while and with my fingers still crossed, be able to put some good swim/bike/run training in.
So tomorrow will be two full weeks of rehab at Endurance with Matt (the scrapper), I sure hope next week will include me in the water starting to not drown!! :))
