Re: Post your daily exercise routine
The nagging stiffness and chronic pain that had accompanied me on all of my recent runs was not present yesterday as I tossed my gnawed apple cog into the bushes and rose up on to my toes to complete another non stop five miler. Just for a mile or two I felt like my old self, and I was tempted to stretch my legs with a more testing pace. I resisted the temptation and enjoyed a steady plod round the course. Storm clouds queued up on the horizon, and a gentle rain dowsed my face and legs, but in anticipation I was suitably attired, the top half anyway!Re: Post your daily exercise routine
Fine, wise words those Bob, and an inspiration to others in many ways I'm sure. Mainly, never give up striving for your goals. pending serious illness, you can always pick up where you left off be it after a month or sometimes following years of recovery. But we get that urge to carry out our wants and desires because it's inbuilt into our system; our psyche.Re: Post your daily exercise routine
Thanks Floydy, I appreciate your comments, it was the best thing ever when you started this thread, the support and friendship from all who post on here is outstanding, and has certainly introduced a new dimension to the way I look at exercising. Long may we continue to support and help each other in whatever exercise regime we follow. Thanks again Floydy....Re: Post your daily exercise routine

Isn't it interesting on this forum and in our lives the varied ways in which that little voice inspires some passion or another! Of all the things that draws me to people and want to get to know them better, it is this kind of drive and the discipline that comes with it. While I was never a marathoner, I do understand that drive to have a heady sense of accomplishment and determination that comes with it. It's not a diversion or a hobby, it's a lifestyle. I would also argue that even though OGF was already evolving away from his marathoning, it may have saved his life.Re: Post your daily exercise routine
