Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Morning. Run done in the sun.

ITG, could you improvise with some magic or tap dancing to fill the time?

Maybe a wee song, Som?

Went to dr to try to get official diagnosis. She is English. Hence told basically never to do any exercise again. Typical.

I will be following physio.

I got referred to a "sports specialist" around 18 years ago as I was struggling with a knee injury. The specialist told me I shouldn't run ever again. I cried all the way back to work, where my boss told me "that specialist is a f**king idiot, I'll find you a physio". :-)

Have done alright since. ;-)

Hope the run was OK Gobi.

Similar story here, Som. About eight years ago, my GP, having identified (via an x-ray) "some arthritic changes" in my left knee, advised me to stop running. I carried on running. The knee is no worse.

Three quarters of an hour this evening with the running club; hilly and warm.
