July 25th, Wednesday
It has been a longer recovery. Then I expected from last Saturday’s triathlon. My quadriceps are still in quite a bit of pain. I did get in a short swim on Monday and some time in the hot tub. I did sleep for almost 12 hours last night which indicates to me that my body is still quite in need of rest.
Final take away from pretty amazing Triathlon experience; I was not really very well prepared for it. If I chose to ever do another triathlon, I would do at least 3 months of very serious training. And of course I would have to become a much longer and confident swimmer. But attention now goes to qualifying for Nationals and trying to control my heel pain.
I do have an appointment tomorrow for another T-Pat treatment for my heel. I do not know if that’s going to be successful but I will finish the course of three I guess. I have to admit that I am not hot and by reading this morning that Yoenis Cespedes is having double heel surgery that will keep him out for almost a full year. COME ON, MAN!
