...the saga continues...

I've had some bright moments in the past couple weeks. Fixing the out of place rib did cure a lot of pain, but my neck still gets angry whenever I'm on a bike. I biked a few times - the first was the best, and then it got worse and worse...And these outings were ranging from 30 mins to an hour, just spinning, so it wasn't like I crushed a 4 hour mountainous tempo interval session or anything!

There are several pieces of good news to report though...the list could extend a hundred fold into cyberspace, but here are a few...
  1. My back is getting a lot more even thanks to Dr. Zoellner, and my heel's bursitis has almost vanished as a result. Double yay! In addition, for the 1st time since I was 7 years old, it is easier to hold my shoulders back than to slump. So exciting!
  2. Cannondale (via Steve Schlegel) gave me a new Slice TT frame! Much lighter, faster, and...did I say faster? Huge thanks to Schlegel Bicycles for building up the bike, fitting me on it, and of course adding all the components!
  3. 2XU (also via Steve Schlegel) is another new sponsor, giving me great compression tights, socks, racing suit, and shorts!
I'm so thankful(!), and also so ready to be healthy! Our new insurance kicks in on July 1st...I might just have to knock on the MRI room's door next Wednesday at midnight... :o)
