Beautiful!! Well done for returning gradually, take it steady!

I've been on the injury couch for a month now and have at least another month to go (if I'm sensible!!) BUT finally I'm able to get shoes on relatively easily, so am off to try and replace my trusty Asics next week ;) as a bit of incentive!!
