Twist & Shake

Well, if you can't run, sing!

No one ever said that, but at least the breezy physio whom I saw yesterday gave me a few other options.  The swelling over my left knee which I twisted at Goatfell has taken an age to reduce. The first tentative short jogs I attempted 2 weeks ago failed within a mile. 

Last weeks easy biking around Feldy was welcome exercise, but Sunday saw a partial relapse when I pushed things a little more. 

You can do these exercises, you can go to the gym, you cannot run, not yet...

You can swim, you can do exercise bike, but maybe leave the real bike out for a bit...

Bin any ideas about running at Blencathra this weekend with all your other old cronies... 

And you probably won't manage the Kirkpatricks race early July... 

Apart from that, you're good to go....to the larder.....comfort eating...bloater 

Its true I cleaned the bin on Monday. Does that count?.

More time to try and finesse my camera skills (teehee).  A trip to Eildon on Saturday was rewarded with a few great shots, several good ones and several blurry images that have become my trademark. Will try a different camera over the next week or so.
