If you're a regular and/or know me personally, you probably know that I sprained my quad (thigh) a few months ago...and then resprained it two weeks after that. The second injury has been lingering a lot longer than the initial one, so I've been taking my time and making sure it's fully recovered before trying it out.

The soreness in the leg went away early last week, and since then I've been working on regaining the flexibilty in that leg that I lost. At this point, when I stretch it for 60 seconds beforehand, there's no pain when I test out my leg with, say, squats.

To test things out, I had a game of racquetball tonight. I took it slow to start with, but once I did a few sprints and ducked under a few balls, it finally felt like I could use my leg without worry. Hopefully that's the case.

I'm planning to finally return to goaltending next week, after the Easter long weekend. If I reinjure it again, I have no idea how long it's going to take to re-heal again. I might have to see a physiotherapist. Here's hoping all's well.
