Re: Self care- walking and cycling
@Jacques it was @Determined who set this page up. I just try and offer encouragement 😀 .
Am huffing and puffing a bit less on the hill section of our dog walk.

Re: Self care- walking and cycling
Haha @Ali11 not as well as it needs to be.
Gp asked me last visit about my bike riding (meaning cyling)
I replied it was great and I usually felt pretty relaxed after (meaning motorbike)
Haha she got my reply rolled her eyes and said not that bike 😅🤣
Weather has cleared up though so aiming to start walking to uni and work again which is about 2km each way.

Re: Self care- walking and cycling
Riding some of the roads (on motorbike) over the weekend that my darling used to cycle on 😨😯
She was hoping I would get out there wuth her at some point when she gets her fitness back. Cant see I will ever get that good. (One stretch affectionately known as gentle annie by the cyclists- long winding grade of 15%) I recon even the motorbike was puffing dragging me over it lol. Darling used to do it twice on a 150km round trip.

Re: Self care- walking and cycling
One block at a time @Determined You'll conquer that long winding grade when you're ready, and just getting out a couple of times a week will get you there. Have you thought about an accountabili-buddy? It was a term used on South Park once, but just involves picking a friend who has a goal, and both of you hold each other accountable for doing something towards that goal each day. Quite a fun concept, but choosing the right friend for it is key
That's impressive that your darling would do a 150km round trip!
