@ridiculous59 I too am a serial C25K starter. Last month or so this year, got to week 3 and then back to week 2. I find now at 67 I really suffer if I overdo. Learned a bit more about "Jeffing" which is a little different than regular interval running, but I'm just dabbling in it a bit. Jeff Galloway now says no need for…

Thank you for all the input regarding balance and muscle strength, and expanding the glass box! It is most helpful to see how others are coping with this kind of challenge. Of course, this isn't the first rodeo for any of us! Sometimes, though, with the vertigo having been so debilitating on two occasions, and lasting…

Welcome to all. @tjharleygal55 -- I tried SUP a few years ago, and loved it! So peaceful! This past summer, I got a little nervous about my balance, but people like you will inspire me to try again when I can. I am 67 and have had some issues here and there with a dizzy vertigo type thing. Not all the time, though. More…

@ridiculous59 Great post! I find it inspiring to read of other runners in our age group who may not be the fastest, and the books that have helped them get out there. I, too, am a runner, currently in hiatus and working it to get back. Started at age 52 with Running Room (Learn to Run, 5K and 10K -- where you work up to…

After that and all through my teens, it was as though all would be well if only I could be "skinny". Had varyng levels of weight fluctuation throughout my life,…

I play and post Wordle and Wordle 2 (six letters) on a FB thread some friends keep up, daily. I like that kind of social aspect to it. I also play Quordle (4 5-letter words solved together, 9 guesses for each, but don't post those results.

Thanks, Kit, for replying. I am in Toronto, too, but, like your other friends, 8.3 or 10.2k M-F is more than a bit much for me. I am just trying to get into "Jeffing" (Jeff Galloway run/walk/run). I used to run, albeit pretty slowly and have a few 10k and 5k distances --- it's a long way! Who knows? If I can get my Jeffing…

Wow! Your walking is impressive! --- Seems like quite a bit! Congrats on losing 53 lbs by walking alone. I applaud you for now trying to get your nutrition in order and to lose the 70 that is your goal. Could you elaborate about your walking plans, past and present? Is it daily distance walking? Do you have friends to go…

I am just reading the book, and I've never been one who felt able to follow a no carbs, no sugar, no sweeteners type of plan, but I am giving it some thought. Hope you post how you are doing. I am not sure I want to give up those things, but I know it could be for the best. I stopped using artificial sweeteners for six…
