Injury Scare 05/20/2008
 

So I had cramped up in the pool the other night doing some hard 25 yard efforts.  It was bad news and all I could think was "oh no".  My leg has been sore since the cramp and it's swollen and I've got a huge bruise that goes from the top of my hamstring to half way down my calf.  I'd post a picture but it's pretty gruesome looking.  Should be a hit at the pool in Kona.

Thankfully it looks worse than it is.  I saw my Physical Therapist yesterday and she said go ahead and train on it.  I rode for two hours last night and while it was a little noticable overall it felt good. Today will be a very easy effort swim (not much kicking - mostly pull buoy) and then a run a little later.  My mantra for the next couple of weeks is don't do anything stupid.
