    How good is the new 'crusher dust' pedestrian path in Wentworth Street?

    Just did twenty minutes of running up the hill and walking down, after a breakfast of wholemeal rolled oats (unsweetened almond milk) pea protein, linseed meal, bran and an apple.

    Five minutes after getting home, my pulse rate is still up from the exertion but BP is 108/72.🙏✌️🏃‍♂️

    I really struggle at Christmas and have grown to hate it as a result.

    I struggle at the best of times with socialising of any kind, and can't initiate conversation. I've always been embarrassed by the fact I've never enjoyed stereo-typical male pursuits / interests, e.g. sport, motoring, and making things.

  6. #health #cholesterol #exercise #olderage

    For the first time in ages, I have my quads back. A lot of stair and hill climbing. I had ever so slowly let myself go in the last ten years and my BP and cholesterol showed that. 8 kilos lighter now, BP back to 1990s levels. Will see how the cholesterol is in spring... 🫢🤞
