I can kind of see someone doing a once-a-year thing as a freak show. I'd never do it, but whatever.
But anyone north of Florida who routinely swims in the winter has issues.

I see four swims logged in the last two weeks. He indicates that the water temp is currently a balmy 45°F.

I had a very large hematoma on my lower left leg as a result of the crash 4 weeks ago. I immediately went to the doctor, and she had me get X-rays because she was concerned I had fractured my left leg.
I do not remember any knee pain after that incident.

So...Yesterday evening I saw a pickup strike a park car while making a right turn. The pickup driver stopped and looked like he was going to leave information but never did, eventually driving off. I left a note on the damaged car and spoke with the owner last night. Confirmed some of the information another witness has told him, including the first letter of the tag. (The other witness got the first three.) I also told him the guy was wearing a t-shirt from a roofer/property company whose headquarters is less than two blocks from the accident scene. Owner of the damaged car just texted me some photos of the pickup and the driver. The pickup has front end damage consistent with the accident. The guy is doing some kind of work on a local house. Looks like he's found the guy. Interestingly, the guy has removed the trailer hitch from the pickup, but the bracket is still there.

I poked around my data on intervals.icu a bit, but I'm damned if I understand it. They tag me as an "all rounder", whereas Zwift Academy tagged me as a sprinter. I guess "all rounder" can mean "sucks at everything", while "sprinter" means "sucks least at sprinting".

a) it doesn't matter, but...
b) an issue with intervals is that, to limit spurious spikes of plentiful power, they have a default wattage ceiling that scales with FTP.
My FTP isn't stellar, but my short term power is decent and I bumped up against the intervals limit every other ride until I went in to the settings and... well, I don't recall what I did... I either turned it off or I doubled the cap. Regardless, once I lifted that, they stopped classifying me as an all-arounder and pegged me as a sprinter (although I'll routinely get put back in to the all-arounder bucket if I don't re-establish a decent 5-second effort).

Whoa, whoa, someone looked at an X-ray of a hematoma and says it's related to these knee symptoms? If so, get another doc.

Also, as you can see from my Season, 84- and 42-day plots, they have a very loose definition of All Arounder, which means they're probably very particular about defining specialists, likely much more so than Zwift.

Not from what you've described about the knee, which sounds like a run of the mill weekend warrior thing, related to the new trainer. I am stumped as to how trauma to the leg could have caused that at such a delay. Also, if there were any bony abnormalities on the X-rays, I would hope they would have told you.

If you go to your Activities calendar, you'll see indications of bumping in to the ceiling if you did, in fact, bump in to the ceiling on a given ride. It's similar to when you hit a new/season PR for a particular duration - it'll be a bright, bold notation.
