I have to admit that over the past couple of weeks I haven't been doing my exercises properly, mainly because we've got our new kittens now and they're taking up a lot of my time in the mornings with the playing and the cuddling and the breakfasting.

But today I had physio. She made me jog around and jump and run from side to side and all sorts of things to test whether I was favoring my good leg. Apparently I'm not favoring it in any major way, and she discharged me, saying she's happy for me to start running again!

The doctor said three weeks ago that I could start running in a month, so I might wait another week before I start jogging again.

However, today I cycled into work for the first time. It was a nice easy ride, and I think that's probably the best way to get to work--much easier and quicker than taking the bus, and a lot less expensive.

I think I'll continue the cycling for the next week, then start jogging in the evenings. I am so happy that I can start moving again! I look forward to the next 10k.

I did have a little bit of soreness after cycling today, but I've learned what kind of soreness is ok, and this is definitely just a sort of complaining because I haven't moved my knee that decisively in a while.

Yoga has been brilliant over the past few days. On Thursday and Friday I just did some basic stretching poses, but today I did all sorts of positions. I can especially feel my hamstrings stretching and loving it after so much disuse.

I think yoga will really help me get my flexion and extension back. My physiotherapy exercises are fine, but I don't know why they don't encourage more yoga-type exercises.
