Sorry for being slack - back at the physio

Hi audient,

I'm not having a good run at the moment. the right knee has sorted itself out but this was shortly followed by a pinched nerve in my back from my old back injury. This has manifested itself with no pain (good) but about a 30% drop in muscle strength on the left leg (no I'm not running in circles). For a few weeks or so it was as if I was Kaiser Soze (Usual Suspects) without the grudge....

I went for a lap of Albert Park lake this morning (4.6Km) which was a nice gentle run. I swam a few KM's last week as well as deep water running. I need to lose about 5 - 8 Kgs as I have stacked it on which won't be doing my joints any good.

So, lots of work ahead, to be taken in bite sized pieces. Still doing and enjoying Thursday's group session with Robbo so hopefully I'll be back on track soon.

I'll update this a bit more frequently
