Setbacks are Whack!

So this athlete has had to have a bit of minor surgery. I've had a lump in my lower abdominal area for quite some time. It was never really a problem, but became a concern when I started to work out. The more I did, the bigger it got, so it was finally time for it to go.

I'm not gonna lie...I have mixed feelings. I'm super happy that this thing is gone. I can't tell you how NOT FUN it was trying to ride long distances on my bike with this thing, but I'm just a little worried about recovery.

Those who know me well, know that I'm not the most patient person in the world. I'm seeing all of my friends out there running and enjoying this cooler weather...and here I am layed up on the couch for a few days. Heck, this is only day two and I'm already getting antsy.

I wish there some magic pill that would move you straight from surgery to post recovery healing. I know this is a lot of me being whiny, but hey...we all have our moments. I ask that you guys keep me in your thoughts. This really is something simple. I think I'm just easily bummed when my routines get interrupted.

It's just a minor setback in the grand scheme of things...but it's still whack YO!
