Discomfort persists, especially after downhill and muscular endurance in that leg is lacking...but week on week small improvements. Managing an hour at a time now. Right/left thigh size is different, but the gap is closing. Also have an awesome new scar to add to my collection (price paid for an active life)!
Good to know it's going well. Remember, you can only do this right once, if you tear it again that could be it for your running. It will be years before it's back to full strenght, not months.
