    Afternoon all, had to go to the doctor's Saturday morning - they said I've got a chest infection so I'm on the antibiotics! DW is back to 100% yet but DD1 seems OK now just a cough. Other 2 got away with it!
    If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try - oh bu99er that just cheat :D

    lot of it about this year it seems - get well soon.

    CW the scenery prob would have been lovely and serene had it not been for my gasping like a goldfish out of water :rotfl:

    Thankfully hip not as sore today after my run yesterday (was seriously sore last night) - still managed to hobble through boot camp this morning. Rest day tomorrow unless I go out with OH for a couple of miles .

    Good morning guys


    Get better soon Jeferey and DW - all this cold damp weather isn;t helping, hope the chest infection clears up soon.

    Kerri - I am sure you were not gasping like a goldfish, your as fit as a fiddle I bet with all that training. lol. Sorry your hip is hurting though, have you taken any anti-inflams for it. ?

    Morning everyone :D

    Jeferey - glad to hear you and your DW are recovering, albeit slowly. This winter certainly has taken its toll on people health with all the coughs/colds etc that have been going around. Keep warm when you go out.

    Hope you are improving Jeferey. I always find the cough after the cold is the worse bit for me.


    Glad to say had a successful knee op. yesterday. Bad news is that the surgeon thinks I shall need a knee replacement in about 2 years. It was like a production line at the hospital with the number of people having procedures. Now I must be good and do all the exercises I was given - worth it to be able to go walking again when the spring eventually arrives.

    Hip seems more or less ok now thanks CW - I'm hoping its just a muscular ache and nothing serious. Clearly I run a little wonky :rotfl:

    Would a partial knee replacement be an option as opposed to a full one?

    Boot camp this morning for me, upped the anti with some usual exercises, plus a 6kg weight :eek:

    red - glad the op went well, maybe keep up the exercises and you might get away not needing the knee replacement (with a lot of luck). Having a knee replacement does sound like a nasty op.

    Kerri - have you tried changing your trainers, I know its really important to get good footwear for running etc. Just a thought.

    I Prob do need a new pair of trainers tbh CW I got these at a specialist running shop so they're not cheap footwear and I tried on several pairs, went on the running machine (nearly fell off it too :rotfl:) but they have had a lot of wear and are Prob near the end of their good life. I think my running gait has changed, I used to kick out my left (I think) foot in a little circle, guy at the store noticed as did my trainer, but recently it seems to have stopped (apparently, I never noticed in the first place) so perhaps I'm just realigning myself.

    Chucking it down with rain here, hope to get out in the garden this weekend though.
