Didn't want to start from scratch so pushed it: 30 minutes complete! Last 10 was a mind over matter affair though!

That's so strange I was thinking about you this morning and wondering how you were after your eye operations. Kidney stone pain is horrendous.
Great to see you back and what a run😊👍
Windows cleaned now have a stigmatism to sort out - and yes, kidney stone pain is horrid! I was puking and screaming like a baby! Very slow pace and the last 10 where a push but at least I've got 2 days rest before Mondays' run!
I had 3 kidney stones years ago and was sent home from casualty 7 times before they were found. Got 2 treatments called Lithotripsy and fingers crossed never had them again

Well done - love a good comeback!💪

Empathy and respect, having had both of those conditions! You are presumably seeing the scenery beautifully clearly now!

Its actually quite hard to drink 2-3 litres a day! Esp. if you have a quite static jobI , have to keep forcing myself to drink pints of water! Built I need to build new habits.

Thank you! Generally falling apart actually - eyes, kidneys, knee, back & shoulders! All aching - all over xmas! Tried out RigPigs knee brace today - very good! Will keep cranking out the 30 minute runs - hopefully will gradually increase pace/distance.
Thanks to all who posted!
