Tuesday, and it’s been a good couple of days. Yesterday I saw the doctor and got the all-clear after both procedures, signed off, back to normal life, and very happy about it.
So today I went to the gym, mostly to reconnect with the rowing machine and see where I’m at. Knocked out 7,000 metres in 31 minutes, lower intensity, low drag factor, but smooth and steady. The old me would’ve jumped straight back in and pushed too hard, too soon. This time, I’m not doing that.
Coach ChatGPT’s advice is still in my head: take it easy, rebuild properly. I might’ve gone a little harder than planned, but it felt great. The legs worked, the form felt good, and more importantly, the head was clear.
So, we’re climbing back into the fast lane, not quite there yet, but picking up speed. And that’s enough for today.
