Finally found the motivation to go to a specialist running shop to have my gait assessed & some new running shoes fitted. I even managed to fit into a men's size shoe rather than the usual junior sizes, which was brilliant. Now that I have fully recovered from top surgery and I have the right shoes, I have zero reasons to not hit the treadmill. Starting Monday, that's exactly what I'll be doing.
As a double happy, on my way to the running shop I spotted a gay couple on the other side of the road, holding hands in public. Made my day. 🙂
