The Verdict is in!

Tear of the Superior Surface, Posterior Horn of the Medial Meniscus – otherwise the knee looks great and does not have the damage usually caused by running.


That was the word from the Orthopedic Surgeon. Surgery is not recommended at this point. He wants me to hold off for at least a month. I am to rest a bit and start back with an easy workout. In a few weeks he says I can do whatever I want to do letting pain be my guide. “It is going to hurt me more than I am going to hurt it.”


I am still planning to skip the Frederick Marathon. Mid next week I will start back with my lifting and a swim workout. Next Saturday I will do a 3-4 mile run… Time to get ready to pay the Devil!
