Sports, business and life are all about adapting to adversity. We all have setbacks throughout our journey and this year, my setback is a hip injury that will derail what was looking to be a promising year.
This injury will result in a surgery that will sideline me for weeks from walking, let alone training.
I never want to take long breaks; never want to lose fitness, but the hand has been dealt and now it is time to look forward and set calculated goals.
I will measure my swim fitness with times, my bike fitness with power numbers, and my run by pace. I will set monthly goals depending on my rehab to make progress and keep moving forward, while being smart and not getting injured.
Measuring my progress as I recover from this injury will be more important than ever.
First up: Walk two weeks post op!
