Back in action

This week i fronted for the Tuesday session with the BMMC feeling like a fat little brown kiwi who could not fly and had just pulled it self from the confines of hibination. I had been visualing the crisp morning for weeks, but that did not help as the boys were focused on the M7. So I knew this was no rehab run.

I just crusied as i did not want to push the leg, or lungs for that matter but i knew the pace was going to lift at some stage, thank fully it held steady until the dash along the top, which i let them go, still happy to cruise through under the hour.

Since been out running and the leg is coming good! and was on the bike sunday and monday

Good luck boys for sunday!

Rehab centre paid dividends


The doors officially opened on Saturday down in the low lands nestled by the river. It seemed like a good resting place to curl up and die, crisp cold air, the silence as there was not a breath of wind, and no water movement to report as it seemed a like all participants had limited time before they were going to see the light, the addtion of calming influence of the hound to make the transition easier for all involved.

Then reality hit and all that could be heard is a truck 4 inchs from your head as we jogged over the railway bridge, and the dog pulled GPB arm from its socket. Bull ant surged as he had more to give but the rehad member put him back in line. and GPB was just happy to have friends!

Enough long winded stories

A massive weekend! biggest in 5 weeks.
Rehad Run saturday 6km - leg on the mend
Kayak - 20km
Rehad ride - 5km - little stiff
