30 minutes on numb bum

How far do you get in 30 mins,?

 

[Pipp]

Please miss, I have a note from the doctor.
Been having trouble with balance due to ear ache. Did have 20 min swim yesterday, then 50 mins gym for oldies. I thought the circuit training would be easy because most of the people in there looked old enough to be my parents. Grandparents even. They put me to shame, they know how to exercise! At least it was nice being treated like their baby.

I had a go on a 'numb bum' machine and managed a whole kilometre in 90 seconds. Ok it was on the easiest setting, but it is 25 years since I last rode a bike. My bum didn't get at all numb!
Slept most of today!

I excelled today. Twenty five minutes swim, 50 minutes aquafit, ten minutes walking fast pace round deserted supermarket pushing the trolley for support.
I feel good, and have adopted a new mantra that is the first line in my signature here.

And today, of course, I am too knackered to do much but walk the 100metres or so to the surgery and back.

Hey there peeps! Sorry I haven't posted on this thread for a while. Great to see you all doing your 'thang' and setting an example for us all! @Pipp, I love your new mantra.x

Well after cycling across Europe like some lunatic, I have signed up for a half marathon at the end of September. Much as I enjoy running, I'm usually pretty pleased to stop at the 5k mark. Four times that distance and I think I could be crawling over the finish line. I am undeterred and have been training regularly. This morning I hope to run the furthest distance so far at 12k - and that's with hills! Wish me luck - I think My legs are going to be pretty sore by the end.
Keep it up guys - it's so lovely to see you all.x

Pipp don't knock yourself , you do more than you did when we started .
Clivethedrive I love Edinburgh and the view from there is amazing ... Arthur's seat next ?
Wow Bebo321 that's fantastic.
I had retinopathy screening after work and eyesight just getting back to normal now so was frightened to move very much . Haven't had it last that long before .

Hello. Back in the pool today. I swam for 40 minutes non stop. 70 lengths of short pool which would be 35 in standard pool. I need to swim as much as I can.
I just thought I would add that this evening my 2 blood tests were 4.2 and 5.2 which is much lower than recently. I think it was the swimming.
