Congratulations! What a superb achievement. Have you found that the running is easing your arthritis? One of the reasons I started this is I’d started to feel some twinges in my knee and a hip - and it’s really helped. Hardly get any now. How’s it for you?

I’m taking it carefully but not too bad so far (despite consultant saying I shouldn’t run) Great that it’s working for you too. 👵
