    Just coming up on my 5th week of labrum reconstruction. I was weight bearing in 3 weeks. No crutches at 4. My pain over the last year has kept me off the road and I gained 10lbs, so as fit as you are, I think you will bounce back quick. I watched your wife’s video before my surgery and it helped! Thanks you guys!

    Sorry to hear that, Steven, but stay positive because it's overcomable. I had a torn right labrum involving calcification, or what was described as a bony protuberance, shredding away at my labrum. The surgeon shaved down the bone, cleaned up the labrum, and I was doing the physical therapy and then walking within 8 weeks, paced 35 miles at Leadville a year later, and completed the Leadville 100 the next year. You'll be back. Also, based on your military service, and depending on where you have been deployed, you my want to check into your Army medical records and connect any service-related injuries or service. I was airborne, so hips and back took a beating for sure, and also deployed to a few presumptive condition combat zones under the PACT Act, so cover your bases and do some research, if you haven't already. Positive vibes on your future surgery, recovery, and comeback.

    Sorry to hear of this diagnosis. I had a hip issue crop up years ago after a treadmill run (severe hip flexor strain), physical therapy solved it maybe 80% of the way but it's never been the same since, so now I split my time between running and lifting. BTW you look like you'd be a beast at lifting - maybe set a goal to bench press 225lbs or do X pull ups by the time you resume running? Just to take your mind off running and keep active without using your hips. Take your time and good luck man - rooting for you.
