I have not run since 23/01/19.Started with grumbling ankle and progressed to a grumbling hip also.Physio pointed out that my big toe has turned in, altering my footfall, which I had not noticed and nothing to see apart from the obvious after it had gone unnoticed.Father Time is not my friend and he better realise he has got a Warrior on his hands.I know he will win eventually but he is going to have to get his jacket off.
Hopefully I will have two different physio appointments this week.
Getting myself lined up to start the Fast 800 beginning of March.Brillant.7 kg less to carry eventually and clear the visceral fat and give my body a clear out benefit.
Very busy setting up a C25k programme Green Gym Running sub group.Thank you Jan, Bluebirdrunner, for giving me the two links.Sent out to the interested members the programme and wall chart, to give them a chance to appreciate the commitment and implications of doing it in a group, which is their preference, but I have suggested a contingency plan and highlighted the merits and importance of using the podcasts, registering, graduating, support,independence,well everything really that the magic forum offers.
No question it is just easier to run and I am not really mentally exhausted, loving it really and trying to give back.
Pleased to get my indicative VO2 max up again to 42.That has taken 2 months.π
I think now I would still want to run even with a peg leg, parrot on my shoulder and a pirates hat, LJS look out.

As you know very well with all your huge forum experience and wisdom, my foundation seems to have gone walk about.But hopefully I will be up and running with this green gym sub group, 6 including me.Four ladies, 2 chaps, comprising of a husband & wife.Four pensioners.
Slow and steady and slower yet at the pace of the slowest member perhaps me,will be ringing in their ears.Be assured of that .
Of course I am sure you will see them on here soon enough.
First meeting after green gym Friday to see when we intend to start , which 3 days, times.etc.
They are so excited and enthusiastic,and I have to kick myself from being the damp squib.
Sorry Floss gone off on one,
Cannot thank you, Jan and all the team and the magic forum for giving this gift to all and to me.
Sorry your still not running Tbae, but it sounds like youβre keeping busy and active. Hopefully the physio will get you sorted and happily trotting again. Green Gym starts C25k sounds a great plan. β€οΈβ€οΈ
Ooh aah me hearty! π¦Tbae, loving your spirit and defiance at Father T .Hopefully it wonβt be too long before youβre back running. Thats just amazing what you are doing with and for your Green Gym team. Hope your physio appointments go well. ππ»ππ
We miss you Tbae, but how on earth will you find time to fit running in with all that going on too π Brilliant stuff, and so good to read that you're using some of your time out to inspire a new batch of runners too!
You Admins and the magic forum are the inspiritation.π₯π«
Hope you are taking care of yourself.
Biggest problem for me at the minute is the running sub group want to do just that.
I am trying to lower expectations with the realities of the C25k program and not just doing it individually, which as far as set up and go is easier.π€
It is not exactly a walk in the park, 3 times per week. π€
Want to accommodate their wishes but have the contingency and independence for each member also.
I am a novice but compared to those interested I am an expert.
I think I mentioned on here before the definition of an expert. ππ
Hopefully when we get the first week under our belts it will all click into place and slowly they will all be signed upto HealthUnlocked.βοΈ
Thank you Sqkr, I am sure they do not know what I am banging on about.π
But once they read the essential reading on here the light will be 1kW I am sure.
Who knew that not running could be such hard work! You certainly aren't taking it lying down, it surely can't be long before you're running again, parrot or no parrot.
