Recovery

Walking a lot is rare

Apple Watch fitness app — Awesome workout yesterday. Felt physically vibrant in a way i haven’t in the past 15 months — since the first retina tear.

Yesterday, felt stronger and more physically conditioned than i have in 15 months.

Feels good physically

If you’ve ever been ‘legally’ blind in one eye for a week, you know how scary it can be to have no guarantee for full recovery.

That said, late yesterday and continuing through late today i’m able to perceive movement and some color.

This is huge because in the beginning only a week ago it was mostly dark with virtually no light perception.

Eye feels ‘heavy, watery, and puffy’ from the four pairs of eye drops every four waking hours. Every pair is a drop to fight infection and a drop to fight swelling. This is day four. Still ten more days of drops.

In summary, feels like we are heading in the right direction, quicker than i expected after four days.

72-hour challenge

Yesterday, met Cheryl at work so we could ride together to Epcot last night. Took this photo of the 2001 photo in her office. i began a consistent workout habit this same year.

Three days later, wrist is improving.

Ice, heat, ibuprofen, and a wrist brace.

Straightforward.

Common sense.

Amazing what can happen in three days.

Remarkable what can happen in nearly two decades using common sense.

Will i return to running soon?

Will you?

Recovery.

Recovery is the process of catching up to normal – whatever normal means to you.

With exercise, it’s generally rest or a much lower version of your exercise routine.

When we travel, it can mean recovery from jet-lag and getting caught up with office administration.

Do something completely different

Windermere Prep High School poster yesterday.

New Balance Running shoes — Randomly, the intricate detail caught my eye though the camera’s zoom lense.

One of my seven wellness architectural blueprints is rest.

Primarily focused on sleep, it also relates to recovering from physical activity.

While sleep is perfect for recovery, so are scenic diversions from our daily routine.

Yesterday afternoon i made an intentional choice to get to the high school 30 minutes early (to pick up our Son) and sit on the bench by the office.

Three years ago, i used to do this every day.

My business wasn’t as busy then.

i had more time to spare.

Looking to take back more spare time.
