Still here albeit a bit slow and chilly ❄️🎄🎅

Well, well, well! I have been following what everyone’s been up to with great interest. It’s been a tough few weeks what with snow, ice, and rather cold temperatures hasn’t it.

This end I have been dealing with the knock on effects of a twang I sustained in September so on physio advice have been doing 3 x 3k runs a week, weather permitting. But I was a bit naughty this morning and went a little bit further which felt pretty good - no discernible difference with the extra distance so very happy with that 😊. I’ll do a slightly shorter run next time though.

I’ve missed doing those crisp, bright, cold runs, and this morning it was just that! Absolutely stunning in our local water meadows. My physio has given me daily exercises which I think are really helping, and although I moan and groan, my office has moved to the top floor at work, so I must go up and down those blooming stairs about a 100 times a day, and that seems to have really helped with my running too 🤣.

I’m hoping I turned a corner today. Back to the physio on Wednesday to see what he thinks and hopefully an exercise upgrade!

Have a smashing day everyone 😊😊😊.

Aw thanks so much IP. I have to say I’m so pleased I made the effort going to the physio - I needed someone with a sensible head and professional know how! It feels very good to be somewhat back on track 👍😁🎄.

Many thanks Dexy5 - aren’t they just! 😊. I’d held off and held off but sometimes you just have to do what you have to do.

Thanks Oldfloss . I used to run in the water meadows an awful lot but it can get really, really busy. I had sort of forgotten they were there 😊.
