Followup with surgeon.  He said everything looked good...which I already knew.  He said I could run at 12 weeks (4 weeks to go!!) and start side to side movement at 6 months.  I asked him why my lower leg still feels numb.  The block they used during surgery is still wearing off.  That must be one heck of a block to last 8 weeks.

PT strength test-I failed.  I needed to hit 65% of my body weight on a single leg-leg press.  I couldn't even do it double leg.  And I couldn't  do the single leg squat up and down on the chair.  Sigh....this is way harder than I ever imagined it would be.

1:46-1700 feet elevation.  Hike up Grove Creek with my son.  Felt good going up, but going down was really tricky.  I may wait a few weeks till I do it again.  Not sure the knee can handle it again that soon.
