Starter for Active 10

[Edweezil]

hi folks,

I used to be pretty fit- cycling, walking etc but have just had an extended period of ‘languishing’, pre starting a new role… long story short, I’ve pretty much been sedentary for the last three months, and having turned 60, feel the need to ‘get going’ again😜🕺🤞- monitoring my brisk walking is a start, also signed up for the Zoe programme + indoor rowing 🚣‍♂️… wish me luck!😜🤞🤩

Good luck. I have just signed up for the second part of the LOTR challenge having completed 663 miles in total for the first one. Wish me luck too - I must be mad!!

Thanks 🙏- what is the Lotr challenge? If Orcs and Dragons are involved I might just be in?😜🤣😂

Orcs, Hobbits, Elves, big ugly spiders, the works 🕷️!

LOTR is the Lord of the Ring challenge run by Conquerer Challenges.

I've just completed the first challenge, with 5 events spanning 663 walking/running miles, and signed up yesterday for the second (and final) challenge, The Return of the Kings, with 3 events spanning 250 miles.

Not for everyone, but I find it helps me stay motivated, especially on the days when chronic fatigue has me dragging my feet through treacle 😮‍💨

The medals are fabulous quality - have a look on my feed if you like 😃

Welcome! And so glad you’ve found us!

Well done! The Active10 app might help with motivation, hunting after the various badges. Link at bottom of this forum webpages.

And hello, fellow indoor rower!! 👋👋🚣🏻‍♀️🚣🏻‍♀️

Just yesterday I started another rowing training plan. See our Strength and Flex forum where we chat about all things cross-training, strength and flexibility, including rowing healthunlocked.com/strength...
