Cheerleading should be abolished. It’s outdated.
My daughter never wanted to be a cheerleader. She wanted to be cheered.

I'm out of beans and it's up to -5° so my wife's Tesla is warming up the interior for me. Just notified me that the interior is now 68°.

I think I underestimated how seriously I would need to take my recovery from hernia repair on 1/9. It was bilateral inguinal laparoscopic and incision for my umbillical one, so they did all three. The incision site is the most sore/painful. On the flip side, as of yesterday I could walk for 10 minutes without pain. I have a hard time taking it easy so that may be my biggest challenge. Always trying to do too much around the house.

My mentality is starting to shift from fitness-maintenance to buckling down and starting over. I'll ask for a PT referral at my post-op in one week, and develop a new routine of light strengthening and cardio that is based upon my recovery. That will give me something to be proactive and positive about. Until then, I'll try to stick to just walking and thinking positively (<---well, trying to at least). I'm done with the oxycodone so that will help.
I've been through this sort of thing before, off the bike for a couple or more months due to previous injuries. I know from past experience that I'll be back. Certainly don't want to overdo it and have a recurrence.

I've been out of the loop with Women's XC for a while, but I did enjoy watching Jolanda battle with Anneke Langweid a few yeas back. Jolanda was more technically gifted and Anneke had the bigger motor. They would always be neck-and-neck and it depended on the course/on the day who would come out on top.

Rebuilding after an injury can be kind of cool, as you watch the fitness curve move up and to the right. That's encouraging.

Winter is just showing up here. Teens and twenties all this week. The ground might even freeze.
