Make him watch an activity he loves and can’t participate in 😆
Great idea Ollie! Thank you for suggesting this! 😊
This is an amazing idea!
Brilliant idea!!
I'm so interested in that. Please do it so Rick knows his friends support him and wish him the best. Great idea!
As a physio, it makes me happy to see you are doing all of your exercises as well as being very compliant with your restrictions such as weight bearing precautions. This is not to say that there will not the days, sometimes two or three in a row where are you feel like you are moving backwards. That’s a normal part of the process of healing. Sometimes you may feel pain or weakness in parts of your leg that you have not experienced before. Again, normal. Just take it week by week and you will see progress. As your surgeon said nobody knows exactly how full of a recovery you will achieve when all is said and done, but with a good team surrounding you like you appear to have as well as strict compliance with what they tell you to do, I have no doubt that you will achieve great things in your future. You got this Rick!
Great advice, Luke!
Thanks for the important work you do Luke! I can't say enough about the importance of buying into the process of rehab and applying the same intensity to healing as one does to training. Cheers!
Thanks for your wisdom! I am recovering from a 4a tibial stress fracture and lately, despite strength exercises and crutches, I feel like I am getting worse! But as you said, I am now experiencing aches and pains in other areas of my leg. It has only been a month since diagnosis and I have a long way to go but you have given me hope that I will be back to running in the fall.
Respect from a 75 year old runner. You have all the time in the world ahead of you, so just take your time.
All the time in the world? Life is short! I say this as a 28 year old.
Some stories of support. I am a former Royal Marine, Aussie Army, West Aussie copper and now a fire fighter…….couple years ago I nearly cut my right knee cap off whilst dealing with some glass that ‘exploded’ all over me…..has it affected my running long term…yes…..BUT I can still run not the same pace as I used to but I CAN still run……one of the guys at my station suffered a spiral fracture of Tib and Fib couple years ago…. He is back to fully operational duties. One of our guys broke his back in a car crash and spent time in a full body brace, since then he had completed in the Australian ninja TV program and is a fully operational fire fighter. One guy broke his neck playing Aussie rules, again back to full duties……i could keep going but you get the idea. Rehab sensibly, listen to your body and you will be back. Don’t let little negatives ruin your total journey. 👍👍👍
Thanks for the support Dave 💪
Wow Rick, thanks for the vulnerability. So brave of you to share this when you don't know where it is going. So much respect.
Thank you Mark. Appreciate your support 😊
Praying you get well Rick. Be strong.
Thanks Eddie!
I've never commented on a RUclips video, but today's literally moved me to tears. Been there; done that. It totally sucks. I've been running for probably longer than you have been alive and I have been a frequent flyer at my physical therapist's office for years and am probably help him put his kids through college. Any downtime is difficult, but when it's an extended period of time, it's downright depressing, especially if you don't know if you'll run again. My last injury, which ended up in surgery, was the first time my physical therapist said I needed to look into other activities--and he wasn't talking about cross-training. What a bombshell! The odds of running again were very much against me. I read articles about what to do post-running, but they were all about what to do when it's a temporary thing. Maybe people don't want to talk about what it's like when you can't run. I couldn't find anyone I know who had had this surgery and ever run again. That didn't make me feel warm and fuzzy. I did have a lot of supportive people who were behind me (including my physical therapist), and you have even more. The not knowing part is hell. The setbacks along the way to recovery (which will happen) are scary: is it a setback or the end? I beat the odds and am running again. In fact, there are times when I am running better than before surgery. They aren't my younger-self times, of course, but those were never going to happen again anyway. It's left me with a newfound sense of gratitude, especially since it could easily have gone the other way. Recovery was much slower than I liked, but I was super careful because I didn't want to risk re-injury. Patience is key, and if you don't have it, you have to get it to make it through. You have to focus on the long-term: keep your eye on the prize at all times. The hard truth is you might not run again, or run as well as you did before. The other truth is that you have what it takes to have the best possible recover that you can and you WILL do what it takes to have the best possible recovery. You've also got a ton of support near and far. We all hope that you have a complete recovery and eventually come out of this even stronger.
Thank you so much for sharing your story and I'm sorry to hear it was such a long, scary road back to recovery for you. But it's so encouraging to know that you're back and you're running better now too! Well done to you for persevering! 💪
Thanks for sharing! I'm so glad you're back to doing what you love!
Thank you so much for sharing this journey, your humility honors you. You truly are a good-spirited soul, smiling for the entire video despite the difficulties life has thrown at you. No wonder why you are a fan favorite.
I wish you a perfect recovery, so you can play pain-free with your little one (or is it ones? I’m not sure, haha). And a big round of applause for your clearly supportive wife.
Thanks so much Eric!
You are young, you have good condition, you will be running but have to be calm. Built your upper body, arms etc. Follow all your therapy. I had both knees and I am running at my 55. Sooooo keep going!!!
Hang in there Rick. You'll be up and running for the London marathon '21 💪🏻 all the best from TRC fans in Serbia 🇷🇸
Hey Rick. Just sending you good thoughts. Hope you keep getting stronger everyday. As lots of sports coaches like to say, “trust the process” (but don’t rush the process). We look forward to your next video. Best wishes
Thanks Glen!
I'm so sorry to hear what you are going through Rick! But you are still going and keeping a positive attitude which is super hard to do so really well done! I wish you all the best with your recovery!
Thanks for the positivity 😊💪
Am so with you Rick. 10 months into my own injury journey. Patience fella, thoughts are with you. Also, thank you for sharing your experiences, as it’s good to see the other side of things, as in the early days of my own injury I had to come off social media as the only running posts you tend to see are PB’s and glorious scenery x
Rick, praying for your recovery. Hello from the Philippines 🇵🇭
I definitely feel this. In 2019 I tore my hip flexor, and was out for a long 3 months. Sticking with the recovery program from my physiotherapist, I was back out stronger than I was before! Stick to the recovery, you’ll get there 👍
Thanks so much Ian - good to hear you've come back stronger 💪
Suffered a complex degenerative medial meniscus tear at the end of January. Meant I could only walk about 1/4 mile before the knee gave way. Consultant advised on having surgery but there would have been a 100 week wait due to Covid, so have gone down the non-surgical route.
Plenty of rehab leg strength and balance work and patience. Started a walk/run programme and I am now running for 40 minutes with 4 x 10 minute running/1 minute walking.
Stay positive and patient and put in the rehab. Really feel for you and wish you all the best in your rehab and recovery 💪
Praying you get better soon! I haven't seen part 3, but I'll check it out. My mother had the same thing about 10 years ago. After surgery, it was rough for a while. But she recovered fully and has been able to run, cycle, and stay active with a number of activities - even now at age 70. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. We're cheering you on!
Keep going Rick, we're all with you every step of the way.
Thanks Pete! 😊
Hey Rick, the body can do some crazy recoveries. I am confident you will get back at it soon. We are all rooting for you!
Thank you so much!
You will be back, I broke my ankle two years ago and detached the ligaments, it was a slow process of surgery and physio but taking it steady and sticking to what the surgeon and physiotherapist told me has seen me come healthier than ever. Keep your mind busy and focus on a positive outcome, good luck.
Hang in their Rick,. The body is capable of amazing things, and the good news is you are a young chap with lots of healing energy
Get well soon. Hoping for a quick and healthy recovery.
I'm with you, Rick. I know what it's like to be injured to the degree where even the smallest thing seems like moving a mountain. It is scary and very humbling. Take your time, try not to lose heart. You have my best wishes.
Cheering for you Rick from the US. Wishing you nothing but the best. Keep up with the physical therapy and be patient with your recovery. Loved the video and I can tell how much you miss running.
Keep working towards a full recovery. It may be hard now but soon it will be in the past. I have faith in you. Best wishes.
Wishing you all the best in your recovery Rick
When I had a hip replacement about 4 years ago the hospital made the same noises about getting some form of normality back into my life. What they don't realise is that for people like us running is part of "normal life". OK, the surgery wasn't as radical as you have obviously gone through and I was out of bed and moving about (with a zimmer frame!) within hours of the procedure but with effort and a bit of desire on your part you WILL run again. Take rehab very seriously, work on any exercises you are given with extreme diligence, give it time and things will work out.
Best of luck!
Thanks so much Mark!
You're so right! I destroyed my ankle with a fall during an impromptu ice climbing session. PT with their questionnaires about reaching normality in life... walking to the car ISN'T a recovery back to normality for active people! I finally found a PT that specializes in athletes, though I'm NO pro, and the support, understanding, and difference in the PT itself was amazing.
One day at a time - you’re totally right to just focus on the short term and not bog yourself down with all of the what if’s
Keep up your positive attitude. Even injured you’re an inspiration to people, all the best in your recovery.
Prayers, Rick! Heal up friend!
Good luck Rick. There but for the grace of God go I. Glad you have Manny on your side!
It's a tough road Rick but we're all behind you. I suffered a rotational fracture of the distal fibula in 1998 and spent 10 weeks in plaster before a second op to remove a stasis screw. The NHS physio available was limited and it took me about a year to really get active again. I was 35. I think that you can get there but do it better than I did - make a plan, progress steadily, don't overdo it and look forward every day.
Best wishes Sir.
Thanks for the advice, Michael!
@@runningchannel Look on it as support please. You have experts around you to give you sage and valuable advice. 🙂

"Gutta cavat lapidem non vi sed saepe cadendo". You will get better, even if it seems like not.
I really cross my fingers for your recovery.
My advice to you, having battled problems with my left knee and severe achilles tendonitis on both legs and now being almost complete rid of problems and able to do even 100K trailruns is, WALK a lot as part of the recovery and use your BIKE a lot, to activate the joint without straining it.
When you start to run, run a lot slower and a lot less than you really want to !
Set some goals along the way.
Despite doctors and experts, I always knew (being an elite trainer) that I knew more about what the body is actually capable off, if done properly.
And loose just a little weight.
Yes it means a lot to your knees !
Thank you - this is all really sensible advice 😊
I hope you have a speedy, pain free recovery Rick
I can't bring myself to like this video because I am in tears and so sorry for Rick. You are a rockstar and your positive attitude has gotten me through some really tough times when I felt like I just couldn't cut it as a runner because I'm too slow, too weak, etc.. I'm running my first half marathon on May 30th for you, Rick!
Thank you Kate! All the best for your first half marathon! Which one are you running?
Just caught up with this video, love to Rick and his family, you can do this mate 💛💜
Hi Rick, It's great following your recovery journey back to full fitness, and it will be full fitness. Be patience and concentrate on building those muscles up around the knee to ease the impact.
We are all routing for you.
Thank you 😊
Good luck for your recovery! Had a meniscus surgery in Feb and I am back to running. Don't be sad If there are steps backward. And be patient with your muscles build up and back to strength.
Thanks for the positivity! 😊
Fingers crossed for your recovery! ❤️
Thanks Diana!
Stay focused on the next goal, keep going, we are rooting for you to get better and back to running!
Thank you! Will do!
Sending positive vibes for a speedy recovery Rick 💪
Thank you 😊
Rick! It’s not the same without you! Please make a speedy recovery.
Thanks Arjun! Appreciate it 😊
Take good care of yourself!
Sending lots of love to you Rick.
All the best brother.
Praying for your continued healing. I know this whole process can be scary and frustrating, while still being hopeful for the future. I have been down for about 9 months and just had surgery to repair a rectus adductor tear 3 weeks ago. Hang in there and take the time to heal and recover properly. We're all with you and wishing you a safe and full return to activity when the time comes. 💪🙏🚶♂️🏃♂️💙
Thank you Dalton! Wishing you a speedy recovery too 😊
God bless you, stay strong!!!!
Thanks Jay!
Keep at it Rick, stay strong.
Wishing you a speedy recovery Rick ❤️
Thank you!
Know the feeling, just had kidney transplant that took two surgeries 5 weeks ago after a year of dialysis, can finally walk around the block. One day at a time. Can’t wait till I can run again. It is mentally draining.
Best of luck, hang in there. 🤘😎👍🐝🇨🇦
😮❤👍 blimey! Good on you!
@@Tara_Masika Thanks!👍
Thanks for watching David. Wishing you a speedy recovery 💪
@@runningchannel Thanks, you too!🤘😎
Stay strong mate, I know all injuries Are different but I had an Arthroscopy on my left knee to remove a section of cartlidge and rebuild of my right knee after a lower section 'inadvertent 2-axis negative rotation'. Both of these were within the space of 18 months. Since then I have gone on to compete in Triathlons (upto 70.3) Duathlons, Night trail races, half marathons. The best thing I can rocommend is Cycling (heresy for this channel I know!) but the low impact nature allows your body to remember firing each muscle and allows you to build endurance and stimulate blood flow prior to running.
Thanks so much for sharing this Rob! Great to hear you've gone from strength to strength 💪
Hang in there Rick, one foot in front of the other, we're right there with you, all the best!
Thank you!
Learn to enjoy the pampering. You'll miss it when it stops. Good luck with your recovery.
That's the plan! Thanks Paul 😊
You got this Rick!
Doing all the right things. Keep at it, Rick. Patience is essential right now. You WILL reach your goal.
Thank you 😊
Go Rick! You and your lovely family CAN get through this ❤👍
Thank you Tara!
Keep the faith 🦵
All the best with the rehab, Rick!
Thanks Scott!
