I went for a walk yesterday morning, 2.2 miles, and it was so nice I wore shorts and t-shirt. Not bad for late December. It was great to get out and get some sun and exercise. In the afternoon, I had my six-week checkup with my orthopedist. The bone is healing as planned but it will be another six weeks before it's fully healed. I'm cleared to do full-motion physical therapy. The bad news is that I can't run until the next checkup on February 17th. The arm swings when running are too repetitive, so the doctor recommended cycling or an elliptical (without using the arm levers) for cardio in the meantime. Not great news, especially since it's so warm this week and it would be fantastic to be running during the spate of good weather. I'm glad about the collarbone and progress there, sad about the running. This definitely means I'll be starting from scratch when I get to resume.
