Thanks to @abcd-adventures for the nudge to post a SDS. I’ve been terrible about posting so thanks for the tag!
Running has been going well since I cut back my mileage in the early fall. It seems like 20 miles a week suits me better than 30+ miles. I like running 4-5 days a week, and 4-6 miles each run is enough to feel like I did something but not so much to wipe me out the rest of the day. I’m thinking about a half marathon this summer- maybe the Seattle Rock n’ Roll in early June.
I haven’t been able to play tennis since July due to shoulder issues and tennis elbow. My shoulder mobility actually got worse after I stopped playing which didn’t make sense to me. I finally got into a orthopedic PA who diagnosed frozen shoulder, but I was unable to schedule care. Turned out to be a good thing as when I went someplace else to get care, they correctly told me that it was not frozen. I have rotator cuff and bicep tendonitis, but in addition the joints in my shoulder are also not moving.
Today the PT mobilized my collar bone and wow, I could suddenly move my arm so much better! It’s still far from normal and still really painful but I’m hopeful that I may get full mobility back. I should have never let my arm and shoulder get so bad.
Running and physical therapy, that’s pretty much what I’m up to on the sports front!
