It's 72 days since the surgery: I went running with Geordie today. Only half an hour, but uphill and downhill.

Knee feels great.

You mind mentioning the doctor/office. My gf is looking at a partial and they don't have good things to say about that or full. Their telling her that things active and especially impact related are off. Meaning jogging is a good way to be back in a couple years for another go. Did you get told how long it would last?

Dr. Joseph Mayo III, in Yorba Linda, CA.

Yes, he's one of those Mayos.

Mine's a metal/ceramic composite, and I'm told that it'll last about 40 years. So I'll have to go in for a new one when I'm 97, darn it.

My hip's titanium. I've seen X-rays of it. It looks very cool. Nice win for the Trojans yesterday, BTW. We were there.
