No worries ed. Just a quick catchup. My wife bought me membership for a crossfit gym for a month as a surprise which was lovely. I've been going for two weeks and really enjoyed the variety in the sessions. I've kept up 1 swim, run and bike a week. Some sessions have included intervals. Obviously I have struggled with the weights but found myself quite good at any body weight exercises and cardio stuff. Anyway as invariably is the case when you haven't heard from someone I picked up a knee injury playing football. Some idiot decided to go through the back of me when I was through on goal. Anyway no scan yet so can't confirm but self diagnosis I think it's a strain on my left MCL. I've done the same thing 7 times over the last 17 years which I could'nt believe when I worked it out. On the positive note the previous ones were all on my right knee and I've yet to need an op. Touch wood. The injury was Monday, the physio confirmed that its looks like the MCL but would like me to have a scan to confirm no tear. Not feeling to bad so expect an active recovery. Will keep you posted.
