This snippet from Scott's profile is inspiring."...I know for someone who’s had a broken back I’ve been very lucky but in August, 2004, having not worked out for at least a couple of years and packing on several additional kilos of flab, my continued neglect finally caught up with a vengeance. My back gave out. Three months bed rest and a further six months forced to work on my stomach gave a lesson not to be forgotten. Even then months more therapy, yoga, and light exercise (and two further relapses) were necessary before I reached the point where I could start regular physical workouts. ..."
I got back into swimming after I herniated 3 disks and partially lost the use of my left leg so Scott's story really resonated with me. When I got injured, I was a train wreck and now the doctors are amazed and credit my swimming as the healing factor.

Sorry, a little confusion here. I'm not the 17thman, just Scott. It was the 17thman's blog "The 17thman, Training for Life" which provided the link to you I followed. My blog is actually titled "Once More Unto the Breach". You might want to make some changes to your recent post. Glad to hear you too have worked your way into recovery. Keep it up!
Yikes, It's corrected now
Much better Tony, but the link you've provided is to The 17thman blog, not to mine. He should probably get the credit.
Well so much for instilling in my readers That I have pay keen attention to details. ;-)
