I am still nursing an injured achilles tendon back to health. I am still not 100% but somewhere over the last few weeks my foot has gone from injured to recovering. I am pretty sure that is not the medical terminology but it certainly helps my attitude. It has been difficult to accept "progress" as positive news. I am used to solutions... completion... measurable outcomes. Not..." well, your foot is 10% better than last week... isn't that great?" No! I want it fixed! Now! (sigh) I have learned to listen to my body (foot) more than ever. No matter how much you (or your coach) tries to ignore the warning signs ... the body typically does not lie.

You might enjoy a recent blog post that was addressed to my coach. The link is below. It was written during the "dark days" of my injury rehab.
