...oooooh nervous nervous nervous

...getting the final say on the knee today (that must make stu happy...poor lad has heard me talking about it A LOT..and when i ask his opinion...i get the ''im not a doctor jo...lol
...fingers toeas and evrything else i can cross will be :)

..now i just have to get the knee to behave ..otherwise the scalpel may come out eeeeeyuk
more later..............


well it IS GOOD NEWS..but im a little grumpy
..theyre not chopping anythin ngout of my knee... yay..very very happy with that.. i had a diff dr to last time..not entirely tru-the boss guy was still the same.. anyway the first girl is like..does it look better??i havent seen it previously..so i whipped out my photos on my phone... but overall they were very happy with it..anyway im starting to get excited..so when can i run...ummmmmm i got a very 'as if' look from both doctors... no you wont be running until we have another look at it in 2 weeks!!!! 2 weeks...cmon already... and im like....2 weeks!!!! well what other exercise can i do?can i swim..///no cant immmerse the leg for that long... im allowed to walk moderately...and yep that is the sum total of exercise for this cranky pants..anyway the dr i had last time saw me as she was walking past and popped in to say hi(and wanted to have a peak) she was very impressed and told me it looked super,..and she was surprised cos she had thought they would definitely been chopping stuff away.. so my leg is super..yay..
..still not allowe dto drive my manual- maybe the end of the week..but they made it clear i should not go on camp next week

..anyway im trying not to be down about it cos it is very good news...but well i was hoping to be running by end of week.. i guess the fact that im stll limping isnt a great sign :(

...lol at many of your comments peoples!!! and jh...i do LOTS of training at the track thank you very much!!!!! i thought it quite funny that about an hour after he posted - he got a text from a friend asking him if he now had a gf..see practically ALL my friends already knew(not sure about jh-cant tell if he was being sarcastic or not when he said he was surprised)..boys are very different creatures..

anyway- next 2 races definitely off the agenda..and im spewing about sandown as that was the race i was setting myself for... i cant help but feel a sneaky little...well if it feels REALLY good at the end of the week maybe i could go for a tiny tiny little saunter...

Sandown next year will be better anyway, I won't be in top shape for it this year either, way under 44 minutes for us both in 2009

You do know horizontal jogging doesn't count as "track work" don't you?

Excellent news on both counts, the knee and the boy ;)

Just try and be patient, there is a road at the end of the tunnel, that you will be able to run down, lol :)

Excellent news Jo.

Now, if by tiny, tiny saunter you mean a run - don't be silly!

Phew,Great news!

I know it must be a pain but listen to their wise words, a little time off now is better than a lot of time off later!

So glad that you don't have to get knifed!

And patience is a virtue....I should know this by now myself!
