Green Light

Went to see the surgeon yesterday.  No earth shattering good news but at least there wasn't any bad news either.  It's still too early to see if my hip is healing correctly (that could take another 3-4 weeks!) but since the pain is subsiding and my mobility is improving, the doc gave me the green light to start hitting the gym, pool and the trainer.  Basically anything that doesn't cause hip pain is fair game.  Good news for sure since I'm going bat shit crazy not being able to do anything physical except for crutching around everywhere which is surprisingly difficult, especially off road.

Come to think of it, my home trails are mighty lonely, maybe it's time to start a new sport, off road crutching.  EXTREME! and only about as dumb as off road unicycles...
