1st Workout in 20 Days

I swam 1,500 yards this morning.  I had to use the pull buoy between my legs.  No kicking allowed.  Technically my stroke felt better than I expected after a long layoff.  Fitness-wise it's hard to judge because I had no kick.  I can definitely understand why I'm not allowed to kick because a few times I felt the movement of the water push my ankle around.  That type of motion engages the peroneal tendon which is attached to the broken bone and that's not a good thing to have it moving.  When I arrived home, I could feel some soreness around the fracture area.  It still might be too early to swim.
