Ooh to be well again 🙏

16 days since I've managed to Run 😨

First week a chest infection, second week an ear infection 🙄

Even my covid infection in January didn't knock me out for so long 😂

But glad to report I managed to get out this morning, a slow recovery run to see how I'd get on, thought if I could make 5K that'll be a start 🙏

Got to 3K and felt I needed a rest,so I did.. carried on till 6K , another rest where I stopped and took some pics .. was joyous to be back out enjoying the wildlife and scenery being very thankful to be out 🙏

Decided at 8K that's enough for today, didn't want to overdo things.. but after shower and breakfast I'm feeling really great and hopeful I can get back to my plan 🙏

Ooh Happy Day 🥰

Your fitness will soon return sparky; in fact it already is returning. I always look for average heart rate dropping on otherwise like for like runs. A sure sign that things are on the up. 👍

Oh dear, you've had some tricky times but good to hear you are out running again .And if you need a break or two then so what ! Thats the thing to do .

Great you feel good afterwards also !

And how were the replacement shoes ?

[sparky66 Half Marathon in reply to Instructor57]

Ooh my new shoes are perfect, thank you 😊

Can't wait to get a long run in to test them properly but no numbness on this outing 👏🤩
