It turns out I've torn the fibers in my quad that connect to my patella tendon. I've had this since February but have chalked it up to soreness and having my knee over-worked from training.
My physiotherapist said it will take 10 days of doing absolutely to heal. At this point in the season I can't step away for 10 days and expect to come back and compete well at my summer meets. So coach and I have decided to just back off on the training and focus solely on technique for two weeks. He say's I will be fine and should begin my peak condition or come out of a down phase by the 12th of June.
So right now all my practices have been easy throwing. I'm happy to say I can feel it healing and it doesn't hurt as much as it did last week. I'm eager to see what I can really do this season.
So that's the update for this week. I have a session with the doc on Sat. to see my progress.
