Well that is my right hip replaced. Felt like death yesterday but pretty chipper now. 6 weeks of operation recovery then hopefully back to fitness rebuild. The Consultant said my hip had been pretty messed up and it was definitely the right decision to replace it.

Forgot to ask him if the replacement hip is heavier or lighter than the original. Should have ordered a carbon fibre one 😃

Martin, titanium surely? Speedy recovery mate👍

Speedy recovery Martin
Is this classed as an unfair advantage to us pre bionic folk ?

All the best @Norry1 .... come next spring you'll be smashing it again at full fitness

Thanks for all your comments guys. Feels like a long journey but I'm sure it will pass soon.

First post-Covid Zwift this am: 40 minutes with Coco (didn’t feel too bad), then 12x instantaneous 1000W+ sprints at 60s gaps. Felt much better than I thought I might, and the news wasn’t too bad when I stepped on the scales (74.9kg).

I think my next ride is going to be just 1000W sprints, as many as I can manage… it’s a good way of making time pass quickly… my PB is 32 of them 🥵

What’s with the .9 🧐

I am minded to make you round that up to 76 kilos 😁

Otherwise good news on the recovery 👍

If it would have been 75 or more, that rounds up nicely to 80, so the 74.9 is quite important
