after having a stroke last year, deciding to do a try-a-tri, been reading up on all the proper techniques etc, my doctor says NO!!, sure (maybe) he knows best, but I think I know how I feel??!! any suggestions???
Don't hesitate to get a second opinion! I would make sure that the Dr. understands that you are talking about a short sprint, not an Ironman distance. If people are unfamilar with the sport they only know about what they see on T.V. and those are usally full ironman distances.
I agree, get a second opinion. Just cos you had a stroke doesent mean your over the hill. Yes you need to go with what the Doc says, however get the second opinion, a healthy life style makes for a healthy body.
Hi Athena, Like I said before, you can do this....... Do you know who I am??? Hee Hee... thanks for the heads up on this great web site! Looking forward to our Tuesday afternoon swims. I really do believe you can do a try-a-tri! You rock girl!
Sincerely,
