I had surgery on January 30th. Yesterday, I competed in my first triathlon in four years and my first race in over 18 months. I came in 4th place for my age group. I’m still slow (for me) on the run but my fitness is coming back quickly. The best part? I had no hip pain and no hamstring pain.
The day after the race, I felt regular soreness but did not experience any pain. It was amazing! I lived with hip pain for so long it had become “normal.” I cried when I crossed the finish line. I love competing and I’m thrilled to be feeling great. Please give Dr. Larson a big thank you for everything he did for me. He has helped me return to the hobby that I love. Next year I’m going for 1st in my age group! Ha! 🙂
