Congratulations um!

I have J, L, O, Q, U and Y to do for my parkrun alphabet. We're going to do Osterley the week after next and then it gets trickier.
We did our Z in Poland.

Congrats on MOTM Um! :-)

I think I've made progress regarding mh knee problem. I've just done a 20 minute bodyweight workout with the Nike app and on reverse lunges my knee complained bitterly. A quick bit of googling - I know, don't believe everything Google tells you - and I found an interesting piece which went through all the possible reasons for reverse lunges causing my knee to hurt. For me, given how the problem has presented, the culprit is our old friend the ITB! What this chap says makes complete sense and what's more it's the same leg that I had ITB trouble with some years ago.

This routine helps release my ITB. It's not due the faint hearted.

I do that one too - although my roller is not a knobbly one - that looks really painful!!
