Didn’t quite know where to start this conversation and couldn’t see one already in place sooo…
I am signed up for the #MoveForStroke fundraiser throughout May.
My recovery has been excellent (Stroke in May '21) and this will be a great incentive to keep on keeping on being active. There’s a good community on the Facebook page, are any others taking up for the challenge on here?
@EssexPhil
Hadn’t heard of it, but it does sound interesting.
A link to more info would be good.
(I know, go search for it myself)
I’d like to give it a go in a limited sort of way.
Anyway, more power to you Phil. Well done for taking up the challenge.
I’m sure participating will be rewarding on many levels.
Please get a photo of your efforts and post it here, we’d love to see.
keep on keepin’ on
I hope the weather is good
Just a thought - maybe it could be combined with a phone Zoom call.
Thanks @Mrs5K
i’m up to me elbows in marmalade right now but I am very interested, so I will be following the link and looking it over later.
As I said above the time of 31 minutes would fit nicely into a ZOG session. Perhaps one or two of us could do a communal effort in a virtual meeting.
Any votes for or against?
To be honest I am surprised I have done so well with the donations. The 31 minutes I’m sure will help with my own recovery too! Hopefully can raise a bit more by the end of the month!
I am doing an app based walking challenge called conqueror it’s not free but a virtual walk, you get a medal at the end of it. each challenge is roughly £25.00 but you set how long you want to do it, you also have the chance to see your route and help the planet At 20% increments the app will let you know if you have planted a tree with the Eden project or removed plastic from the ocean, I choose trees.
Im going to mix it up as much as possible. Work days might be more of a struggle for time. Weekends will be ok and i will hopefully be leading sone walks at the end of May.
I’m fully mobile, and physically back to 95+ percent of the old me and need this for motivation and also improve general fitness. Cross trainer, walks, cycling indoor or outdoor, and some Yoga should get me through .
Day 15 also coincided with the second anniversary of my stroke. Many ups and downs but definitely on an up now, new people I meet can’t tell ive had one
