Hello my dear peeps, an update on my health. Although clinically there is a lot of improvement the ENMG didn’t show any progress. So, I have mixed feelings. No treatment coming up, unless I deteriorate. Anyway, I’m slowly building up the πŸƒπŸΌβ€β™€οΈ. I’m at 4x2’ with 2’ walking in between. Last year I planned to run the Rotterdam marathon to πŸ₯³ my 60th birthday. I’m 60 now, Garmin thinks I’m 20 🀭.
Check out my declining VO2Max.

That is a setback. But at least your VO2 is now on the same level as mine 😁. And I just understood we are also both 60πŸ‘Œ. I hope you can pick up your running again. Maybe not on the same fitness level as before but it would be great if you are at least be able to run some longer distances again.
@Johan_Barelds Power to the 60 year olds πŸ’ͺ I’m happy to run again but I’m taking it very slowly. Next week will be 4x2’R1’. I saw the length of my stride has decreased significantly and it still feels a bit weird.
@Nairamtrab
Solid plan. Enjoy the process instead of trying to rush it.
Funny you are mentioning stride length. Last weeks I experimented with higher cadence which also led to a shorter stride. Feels weird indeed. Like I am making a big effort but at turtle speed πŸ˜†.
@Nairamtrab On VO2max I had it worse this January, but got it all back now! You can do it!
