My internet was knocked out by tree trimmers who were cutting trees across the street.
Dec. 3 -6: Adding 39 miles of walking 19and cycling 20 miles
TTD: 61 miles
Sorry to hear so many of you are still fighting off the crud that is going around. Hope that all you start feeling better.
Anaconda: Glad to her your parts are in and you will soon be eating. I say go for the cookies. You deserve them and more.
Dean: I have a Noxgear vest for a number of years, that I wear for running, walking and biking. Some people thinks it’s funny and others say they see me coming and going. That is all that matters to me. I also have one each for my dogs. I only wish that mine was rechargeable like my dogs halters are.
Tomorrow is my MRI results. I am sure that is not good and I seriously am thinking that do not want surgery again since my left knee surgery is now bone on bone.
Vhuber: Tell me more about your supplements?0 -

@clepant - I'd never seen the Noxgear before. It's pretty cool. I'll bet you can be seen from a ways off.0

@SUFFERLANDRIAN - Thanks, Dean! It's still not gone. My sinuses are still draining and I'm still coughing up cookies, but I was careful not to overdo it this morning. I just couldn't take it any longer not doing anything. I needed to sweat a little. I got 6.0 miles in on the stationary bike.

Having a great time on vacation. Walking about 10 miles a day but I haven't been turning my GPS on and "counting" it. Hope you are all well.
@anaconda44 - great news about jaw.
@sufferlandrian - a cyclist can't have too many lights.

@cpanus: Glad to hear you are starting back at it. Your doctor’s comment is sooooo funny. How did you keep from laughing. Is it possible to go that slow?
@Dean: My Noxgear is fabulous. And yes, people have told me that I am seen far off. I have drivers who stop and thank me for wearing it. It was worth the money. In all my running, I have yet to see another person in my area wearing one. I have lit wrist bands, ankle bands and of course two fabulous Black Diamond headlamps of which runners have literally caught up to me and asked about where I purchased them, but not my Noxgear.
@Dave: My husband is having sinus issues and his jaw has swelling as well as his ear. He could not get his hearing aid in. I told him that he needs to go see the doc or urgent care because of his health issues. He has been putting heat packs on, trying to get it to drain. I thought I was getting a sore throat but I upped my airborne and hot green tea, honey, lemon and ginger, along with some Coldeeze and it went away over night.
My hubby and I had shared ortho appointments yesterday. He has 8 more weeks of PT as his shoulder capsule is building scar tissue and limiting his range of motion. My MRI confirmed a lateral meniscus tear but the injection has stopped the catching for now. The arthritis is causing the problem. He and I agreed to no surgery for now. I could do the Visco supplements but I am going to go full blown homeopathic, strict diet and strength training. I think the lack of running has made my knee worse. I am going to rehab my knee on my own with swimming, cycling, and weights again. It can’t hurt. I will be heading for knee replacement if all else fails so I say go for it. Thinking positive.
Dec. 7 and 8: Adding 21 miles. I walked 5 yesterday and 6 today. Also did lots of stairs which was 3 over my Garmin goal. I did 10 on my x bike.
TTD: 82 miles

@cpanus - 1/2 miles in 30 mins
@clepant - sounds like a good plan for restrengthening your knee. I remember you mentioning Noxgear before and looking it up - it looked awesome.
@anaconda469 - excellent news about your jaw .... yes to the cookies
I travelled to Sheffield on Wednesday midday to do the Christmas present run. The drive there was weird - it was as though the sun hadn’t quite risen - like driving at dusk. It’s a 2 hour drive, 100 miles. The journey home on Friday took over 4 hours ... the first 2 of the 4 motorways were carparks due to cars setting on fire!! Pleased that I managed to get purposeful miles in - I’ve found a two level shopping centre, each level is half a mile long, a 2 mile circuit0 -
@k80flec - Cars on fire? I thought you were in England, not France. Why were cars on fire? That's scary.0

@clepant - Sorry to hear about the knee. I think the swimming and cycling are a good plan to strengthen the knee support. If it does come to surgery, we have a client that just had both knees replaced. She has been on walkers and canes for several years. Now she is getting around unassisted. Her daughter is having a hard time keeping up with her. She is a real spitfire now. She used to get exhausted just coming to the vet. Last time she was here, she went home and repainted one of the rooms and took the dog for a walk. When done correctly, the knee surgery can be a beautiful thing. I'm with you though. If I could avoid surgery, I would.0

@cpanus - 30 minutes for 1/2 mile???? You could do it faster with a walker. Glad you're able to get back to walking. Hopefully that continues to go well.0
