I kept putting it off and finally today I got everything together and jumped in head first. I woke up at 4 and was out the door by 5. Then while driving the 45 minute drive to the gym I workout at, I got pulled over and given a ticket! Who is working traffic at 5:30 in the morning on top of the Harbor Bridge? Oh well my fault. He got me when the speed changted from 65 to 55.

As for the workout it went great. It felt so good to be doing something again. I ran 30 minutes at a 10:50 pace then did an hour resistance workout of chest, back, shoulders, biceps, and triceps. I think I will swim tomorrow. So as of Monday February 22, 2010, I am officially back!

That first one is always a little nerve-wracking.  Glad you're recovering well, and getting back to it.  I'm sure you know that it's because of your strength and fitness that your recovery has gone so well.  It only gets better!
