| GlenT | 21 days | When you're crossing a rocky stream SLOW DOWN! Ibuprofen did a pretty good job dealing with the pain. Used heat to help the healing - don't know if it helped. | details |

| ebone | 36 days | This injury lingered for quite a while. The April 1 end date is a guess, because it seemed to get better for a day or two then flare up again several times, and I don't remember the last time it hurt. I think the recovery simply took time and wasn't catalyzed by any particular action or rest, but I'm not sure. | details |
| revy | 36 days | Recovery just took time. | details |
| disorienteer | 38 days | I've decided to call this injury healed today -- 4/25 -- I'm still not 100%, but I'm tired of being injured. So, I no longer am. | details |
| Quirkey | 40 days | Wisdom? Dont wear studded running shoes and pedal straps at the same time whilst cycling, even if (unlike me at the time of injury) you are just heading to training. One or the other yes, just not both. As regards recovery, the 'expert's' advice is not to do anything that hurts your ribcage whilst it is injured. Gentle cardio after a few weeks of complete rest seems to be the way to go. If i had to do this again, i'd be trying to keep some form of strength training in there, esp on majors ... | details |
