Not quite 2 years post-op but approaching.
I've finally turned the corner in a big way.
Been real good the last couple of months with training and racing.
Back to better performances than a few years pre-op.
Training for the Las Vegas IM World Championship Triathlon on 9/8 which has been my focus.
Did my first track workout out today in probably 5+ years and was able to to do 1:18-1:23 400's pretty easily without puking.
Signed up for Lake Placid IM 2014.
I am so thankful for this new hip of mine!
Lifting, strengthening, cross training has been the key.
Keep, keep, keep at it...

David, that's great! Love to hear your progress, and although I kept away from the track unless forced (threw shotput, discus), I know the times. Excellent and congrats on the hard work.
I know many hippies here have benefited from your posts, including me.
Awesome David keep it up! ;)
David, good post. What corner did you turn? Can you tell us the details?

That is awesome! Good luck on the IM! I have one of those in the bank and have pretty much stayed with 70.3's & Olympic distances. Doing a 5K, Sprint & 70.3 the weekend of Sept. 8th. I am 9mos post op! Nothing like getting back into it! Keep up the good work and enjoy the pain free, other than training, lifestyle!
All I can say is WOW!!! You go!!
