Thank you all gobbs and tons for your nice and encouraging comments. They really helped my attitude and outlook.
My knee is coming around quite well.
I'm going up and down stairs pretty normally and pain free.
I've been on the stationary bike a few times a week and that's going well too. Range of motion is beyond 90 degrees and progressing.
I managed to gimp my way through a few yoga classes by just skipping any extreme right leg bending. No problems.
And...
Drum roll please...
I'm going cross country skiing today. The trails are in good condition so I plan to ski some short loops on the flats just to feel things out. I plan to wear a knee pad just in case. There is also a dog-friendly loop so I'll be taking Pitchka out for a long overdue run/ski. Pictures later.
Many thanks to you all.
Have a Merry Christmas.

Skiing rarely causes knee injuries ;) Be careful out there. Merry Christmas!
Dude that's great news!! Glad you're getting out in the fresh air with your training partner ;-) You do realize you're my hero right now don't you? Setting a nice example for me in the the months to come. I did 3.26 miles on the recumbent bike in rehab yesterday. Think they knew I needed a fix - LOL.
wow!!! what progress!!!!!
have a merry christmas
I hope you had a great workout and that the knee did well! No more running is tough, but you should do well with the mountain biking. You should consider taking up Aquathlons!
