What is your favorite form of physical exercise?

The honest answer is that I don’t know anymore.

Pre cancer and pre the struggles with my mental health, I used to walk a lot, go to the gym, I loved my aqua aerobics class. I would go almost every day.

But surgery, feeling so poorly and fear going out and about has left me quite unfit. But now I’m ready to build up my fitness again. To get stronger. I want to feel healthy and strong again. It feels like I am starting from scratch, which I suppose I am really.

I’ve started bowling again, I had stopped for a while and I’m still playing showdown. But there’s always room for improvement and I can always get stronger.

Today I took that step and started my fitness journey. Even though I was so nervous. I did it and it felt good.

One response to “Starting from scratch”

  1. Hey so I know we don’t speak but I read these every now and again as they come across my homepage and just wanted to say,

    You’ve gone through more hardship than anybody our age could realistically be expected to endure and not only have you survived it, you’ve stayed true to yourself and your interests.

    I can’t offer advice on something I couldn’t begin to understand so instead I’ll say that I hope you continue to live your best life and that the dark days are long behind you. You’ve got the heart of a lion
