Well good news on the shoulder. I went to see Doc Tilley on Friday. Dr. Stephen Tilley is well known around town, a great family practitioner, and climber! So I knew he would take time and have a better understanding of climbers injuries. Doc Tilley was pretty certain that it wasn't a serious rotator cuff injury. Looks like it could be a strain, pull, or tear of the tendon which attaches the bicep to the shoulder. So we are going to start with a round of non-steroidal anti-inflamatories. If that does the job great. If not, we will try a cortosoine injection, and move on from there. Doc Tilley says I should be fine to do a little light climbing, nothing too strenuous. "If it hurts don't do it." Good news!!
So Saturday I took a rest day with only a little bit of swimming at a pool party. Today I put in 25 miles on the bike along the river trail. It's way too hot to do much else outside.
We have our 24HHH training group again on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. Be there!!
