A restful run โ˜บ๏ธ

โ€ข14 Replies

Well that was a nice little restorative run ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ.

Having pulled my back lugging heavy plant pots round the garden last weekend (I really ought to know better ๐Ÿ™„), todayโ€™s consolidation run was a pleasant 20 minutes (from roseabiโ€™s plan) and has eased me back in nicely.

More gardening today, but those big plant pots are staying where they are!!

Happy running everyone ๐Ÿ˜Š and to my fellow runners on the IC or taking time out for a short break, I hope you are all resting up well.

When it comes to gardening and something you can see that you want to change, I think it's hard to remember the possible consequences! I did my back in trying to turn a very heavy compost heap out into another bin...

Happy running (and gardening).

Oh, I know! I see it and I want to do it immediately. Iโ€™m too impatient to ask for help and this time I really should have done ๐Ÿ™„. Hey-ho - wise after the event and all that. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Sounds good! I am going to try one of the โ€˜step upโ€™ podcasts today. Be interesting to see whether can improve pace a bit.

Be careful with your pots! Cutting my lupins today and planting some more.

Good to hear youโ€™re still running Delly-dot! I put my back out a week or so ago when I picked up a broom and have done it when putting a dock on before now - you just never know when it will happen! Enjoy your garden today!

Thank you! I was so cross with myself and will be much more mindful next time! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐ŸŒธ

Glad you had a good run. I suspect gardening causes a lot of injuries. I can feel sciatic nerve twinges today after yesterdays planting ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒท

Great to hear you're not suffering too much with that back and good to know you enjoyed your run. Take it steady Delly-dot. Listen to your body not your head for a while. Easy does it๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
