Hospital questionnaire regarding state of fitness

Was so pleased yesterday when I was a day in-patient at hospital and they asked me if I was fit and well. Yes to both I answered. How good did that make me feel. Last time I was asked that question at the GP's I had to say that the only exercise I did was housework.

Just a little nervous of doing Week 8 Run 1 today in the light of the jump from 25 mins running to 28 mins running and my small operation yesterday. Any advice on this?

Please seek medical advise on this. Don't know what your op was but if it consisted of general anasthetic maybe a couple of days rest would be better as people react in different ways. Keep up the enthusiasm though.
