Well I figured it's been a long time since I put an update on the blog. As many know I had surgery about 9.5 weeks ago, an IT Band Release. Well after the surgery the wound/incision kept filling up with fluid that appeared to be joint fluid. After getting it drained three times, it was concluded that I had joint fluid leaking from my knee capsule.

So I had to go back in for surgery again 1.5 weeks ago to stop that leak. Recovery so far has been a bit rougher this time around, but the range of motion is starting to come around. Matt has been incredible through all this as both a doctor and a supporting friend and I sure appreciate all he's done for me. Amy has also been a huge support and helps me keep from being down or frustrated.

I look forward to running again soon (4-6 weeks), as it feels like it's been forever. So that's the status update for now; wish me luck. And good luck to all running STG this weekend. I sure wish I could join y'all, but I am excited to see how it all shakes out down there!
