Turning 30 and playing Ultimate Frisbee

Today was my first Ultimate Frisbee game in 13 months. It also coincides with my 30th birthday which was a nice birthday present!

Overall the knee felt fine. No soreness or swelling. And although I played a pretty relaxed offensive game, on defense I played fairly hard. It felt great to play again! I wore a knee sleeve just to remind me not to do anything stupid. I feel like I'm still using my right leg more than my left, so hopefully more personal training will help solve this imbalance, or perhaps it's just a confidence thing and I just have to become more comfortable with it. Either way, it's Ultimate season for me!

Happy (belated) Birthday, and Congrats!! Are you feeling any additional soreness today after your big return? As my last post mentioned, I really did it up this weekend in regards to activity and I am surprised how sore my NON-surgical leg is! But, like you said, it's all about getting confidence back and evening things back out. We're not done yet-- but it feels good to be this far, eh?

Cheers!

Little bit sore and Yes! my good leg is more sore than my surgical one.

Not done yet, but this is probably the best part =)

I tore my ACL in 2008 also playing ultimate frisbee (details: http://www.trentmueller.com/blog/ultimate-accident.html) and had surgery with a hamstring graft. I started blogging about it and got a lot of comments from visitors who said the info was helpful, so I decided to do a survey to collect everyone's wisdom in one place. I need a few more responses before I close it and post the results, can whoever reads this take this ACL survey for me?
