I was a bit apprehensive about getting out of bed this morning, wondering if yesterday's hard cycling was going to cause some pain in my tibia, but I was excited when I finally got out of bed and still had no pain, so I got ready and headed to the gym for some weight training.

Full body weights including some light seated calf raises.  Boy have my calves gotten weaker as I have not done any exercises that work the calves for the last 2 months.

Abs and Core.

Tomorrow I'll do another intense bike ride, and if all is still pain free, I'll try out the elliptical next week some time.

YAY for no pain after that rocking bike ride yesterday!

LOVE how methodical and smart you are with the rehab! You will come back stronger, better and faster than ever!

Keep up the good work! Have a great weekend!

All right! no pain looks like you are getting better fast... I am sure it doesn't feel fast to you!
