Hey Hey Congrats!

I know the feeling and I know how happy you must be to be getting back into it!

Well Done!

I'm sure you are on the mend. I would suggest monitoring it carefully and not feeling bad about cutting down the time if you notice any feelings of discomfort.

Cutting the running time down for a week and making up the extra time on the elliptical machine won't set you back at all.

I found I had to do that a few times but if I reacted soon enough it didn't slow my recovery at all. If I ignored twinges it did.

I have found a decent walk warm up of 20 mins makes it easier for me to run.

I'm pretty much free of knee pain completely now too.

Don't take my comments as being negative though - I don't want to sound like I don't think you've recovered because I think you have.

I'm just saying I had to let my knee get used to being used again gradually even though it had recovered. I really didn't take long and it was easy once I reached your stage.

I'm sure the weight will melt off pretty quickly too.

I want to rep you to congratulate you but I have to spread it around!
