Spring Training 2009

So the main neck pain is more or less under control. After much treatment, it turns out one of the most helpful things was to do light spinal decompression. I purchased this gizmo that hangs a head harness from the top of a door. You adjust it around your neck and "unload" the weight of the head by lifting it up. Works a treat.

Three short rides done this week, each progressively longer and a little harder. Feel good riding, though well out of condition. Still it feels like it will come back quickly enough.

This is the day after a hail storm hit us, with golf ball (and bigger) size hail. So the trees were shredded of vegetation, leaving a real wet mess on the roads.

Neck is sore, but only from non-use and holding the ol' noggin up. Need to do some specific exercises for the neck.

MS 150 is less than a month away.
