One week early and I'm back in the water. I got cleared yesterday to stop wearing the brace and to swim. Only 3 weeks after surgery :cheerleader:. He said "don't do a mile or anything" so I only swam 1600 yds (kicked another 700) this morning. My left wrist is weak but can do well at free. Back was bad, *** was okay, didn't even try fly yet. Overall I felt :woot:

:D
You crack me up!!!
Congrats on getting back in the water! Hope your recovery continues to go well!
Yahoo! Awesome. Can we skip the 50 BR rematch though? :rofl:
Shall I assume you're just dying to do the 25s?
Yes, we can skip the 50 br rematch. One day, though....
I actually am looking forward to doing the 25's. How badly can one long distance girl get beaten in a 25?:laugh2: Who knows, maybe I'll even suck it up and do the 200 back. It's still one of my unchecked events on the Tour de Pool. Just as long as no one :rofl:
Alison
Alison, glad to hear your back in the water.....me too.....for almost 2 months now.....feeling really good lately!!!!
Congrats. Glad the back is hanging in there.
Alison
Great. Just great! Love the scheming though.
Alison: "Sure doc, clear me for the pool and I promise to do whatever you say. Scouts honor."
Doctor: "Ok, just don't swim a mile, or anything."
Alison(smiling): "Nope, no mile swims... (Muwahaha, 1600 is less than a mile....)"

Were you spying on my doctor's visit yesterday? You almost nailed the conversation. He said swimmers, runners and gymnasts are notorious for not waiting until healed to go back into their sport. I think I resemble that remark (I've been running since 10 days post-op - had to hold up the brace so it wouldn't hit and bruise the incision worse).

There is no 200 back!!! This is a one day SPRINT meet. Muhahahaha.

Allison, TJ - Glad you are both are back in working order.
You are too funny, Allison. You know your doctor knew exactly what you were going to do too!
