About 2.5 years ago I got hit with a pretty bad injury that caused intense pain in my buttox / lower back. It has gotten better over time but I could never figure out what was going on too well. I went to a sports doc in Australia and got MRIs but he just told me to keep taking IBUprofen and go to a doctor when I got home. I was doing my own rehab which helped a little but nothing was really fixing it. It turns out the aussie doc missed a huge tear on my disc on the MRIs and a really awesome doc on Fayetteville walked me through the problem today. And I have a lot of rehab to do.

So… I can’t do anything for the next 3 to 6 months except swim and walk. Which sucks. I’ve been running since 2007 and I am going to have to relax that for the rest of the year which really sucks. It is a good thing I love treading water, now I just need to find a pool or move the ocean to me.

No running :(
No ultimate
No hiking
No kayaking
No boxing
No biking
Etc…

Sucks, but I am really excited to be fixing this. They gave me some pills to help with the inflammation and my pain is almost gone, which has made me realize how much pain I was in.

This is bwb’s personal blog, so he can share his thoughts with the world, however scary or silly they might be. Plus family and friends can track what I am up to, and where I am in the world.

I am pretty simple. I love Mangos. I love the ocean (although mostly at sunset, as I’m a ginger). I love to travel, eat exotic food, do long bike rides, read, and use my imagination. At some point, I decided it was better to be a pirate captain than an admiral. I am a globalist and see the entire world as my responsibility and playground. And I am married to an amazing woman who makes life even more fun :)! And we are now the proud parents of Calico Jack :).
