Activities with Sore Ribs

I had decided to take it easy on Saturday as my ribs were still killing me following the windsurfing crash on Thursday.

So much for plans, after the moth meeting and teddy bears picnic, the wind was blowing, the sun came out and the sea looked perfect so I headed across to the beach for a windsurf. Unfortunately as I did so, the wind dropped and I only managed a quick 10 minute session on the water before it went completely. I packed up and as I had my wetsuit on when back to the house and got Morgan so that he could come for a surf with me.

Morgan had a good surf, using his leash for the first time and did quite well in what were tricky, lumpy, rough waves. He did stand up briefly once or twice, but the fact that he was getting tumbled all over the place and wasn’t worried by it was really the lesson for the day.

After that I had a quick go on the Turbo Trainer, but really wasn’t in the mood so it didn’t last long. I don’t know if it was the main in my chest / ribs, the fact that I’ve done a fair bit recently and need a rest or if I was just tired as I hadn’t slept thanks to the ribs. Whatever it was I wasn’t in the mood for proper exercise so didn’t bother sticking with it – I was supposed to be having an easy day to let my ribs recover after all.
