9 minutes and 46 seconds of joyful running! Thats what I have just returned from. Progress at last! It has been 3 weeks and 2 days since my operation, and im finally back running. Unfortunately I delayed my return by going over on my ankle, but that is just typical of me! I stepped up my rehab to aqua jogging on thursday after getting the all clear from the physio's. I still have a lot of fluid on my right shin, but I will find out more about this when I see the specialist for the final time on thursday. At least things are moving in the right direction....
Role on 20 minutes tomorrow! Speak soon,
Pete

Welcome
Welcome to my blog, this is my first blog entry, something thats been a long time coming. I started at Loughborough University back in September and am studying Human Biology. I also chose Loughborough for its athletics reputation, which I'm sure you will all be aware of.
Since arriving in Loughborough I have loved every moment I have spent here, and wouldn't wish to be anywhere else. I am enjoying my degree as well as enjoying training under the guidance of George Gandy. Unfortunately I'm not training properly at the moment as I underwent surgery on my shins 3 weeks ago, which will have hopefully sorted out the compartment syndrome I have been suffering with for the last 2 years.
However just this afternoon, I was given the all clear by the physio's to step up my rehab to aqua-jogging, and then hopefully some light jogging at the weekend!!! Exciting times!! This should hopefully mean I can have a track season this year, which is fantastic news. I don't know how fit I will be but I am sure to smash my pb's from an injury disrupted season two years ago.
My current pb's are:
400m - 53
800m - 1.58.1
1500m - 4.00.0
3000m - n/a
Thanks for reading,
Pete
