Congratulations on completing the Before Breakfast Cardio Challenge!
Glad you had a fun day at the park!

Glad you had fun! The funniest is that I never went to that park, though I loved 3 years 1/2 so close to it!

@PetiteSheWolf haha copieurs
Actually, I hurl my body through the city on a bike, so it does not change many things, our building was open. But: I was on cat-sitting duty at my partner's
Nonetheless, I had an evening errand that led me to do 20 km in the the dark and hilly paths of Evere, Schaerbeek and Laeken ^^

I have spent the rest of the evening to find a way to intsall our Belgian ID viewer on my laptop who runs on Mint Vanessa... and same with Jellyfish. Fora on Reddit (r/linuxmint and r/jellyfish proved me that I am not the only one. I might switch to Ubuntu. I do not know!

On a side note, I wanted to share with you a picture of me when I was in my best shape. I am far from it at the moment, but this pic gives me hope (although I know I am older and I am not able to practice any sport with the same level of commitment I was at that time, on the other hand I am in a way better state of mind nowadays.)




Have a great day folks!

 

[TopNotch]

Great picture! Something to keep you going, hey?

 

[Froud]

Héhé Thanks!
I could not sustain the level of effort but it is a reminder that at some point I was able to run like hell and lift a fair amount of cast iron ^^

 

[OJJJEM]

You're as handsome now as you were then, and as lovable as a person can get! I have some pics of me when I was a body builder... I could NOT for the life of me build my calves... Still got scrawny calves... HAHAHA! Sometimes, it's good to have that reminder... gives you a clear image of something to strive for. For me, my old photos are a "YES I CAN" reminder...

 

[NancyTree]

Cool picture!

 

[BrigidForged]

Awesome picture!

 

[PetiteSheWolf]

I think that's an inspirational picture If you were able to do this, today, you're still able of much, whatever you think
I keep my two medals from the races I did (la Parisienne, 7 km - for me that was quite something) the same way, though my ticker won't allow me to do it today, if I did this, I can have enough discipline to do a lot with this body, in the present potential it has.

 

[Froud]

Good morning Bees!
Thank you @OJJJEM @NancyTree @Nanna Io @PetiteSheWolf

Have fun in Paris!

[BrigidForged]

I've never seen the Paris catacombs despite living in France. But then you are far closer to Paris than I am.

 

[Froud]

@Nanna Io France is quite huge. Brussels is only 3.30 hours driving (even shorter by train )
Where are you in France (if I may, of course)? Anyway, there is plenty of beautiful thing to see in France.

 

[TopNotch]

What, @Nanna Io ? Why, even I have done the Catacombs.

 

[BrigidForged]

@Froud, I am in the south, not far from Aix en Provence.
@TopNotch I guess it's the paradox of living inside the country... there is always tomorrow to visit what is perceived as just next door.

 

[PetiteSheWolf]

I have been living a long time in Paris itself (Pharmacy studies, plus moved back in 2012), including some time not too far from the catacombes's entrance, but I have never visited them, LOL. The appartment I sold last year was nearby an old train track that used to go around Paris to carry in and out diverse manufacturing / chemical parts and goods, and that track makes for a path still very much used today for illegal entrance in the catacombs (for feasts, drug deals, off the grid living...). I would do the regular visit, but the illegal one? Uh no, I am too much of a scaredy cat for that (plus it can really be dangerous).

 

[Froud]

@Nanna Io Aix is nice. I have been there as well
Must say that it was interesting. And it is true that usually we do not visit where we live. With the Confinement, we tried to rumble a but in Belgium, there are nice spots

Good Morning Bees!

While helping my mom-in-law moving upstairs a huge roll of carpet, something snapped in my back and now it is a bit blocked. It is not to painful if I stay put but that meant no workout.
I am going to pay a visit to my GP later today

Have a nice once, and if someone asks you to move heavy things, just say no

 

[PetiteSheWolf]

Hope it is nothing really big for your back, healing vibes! My second bro damaged a disk pretty seriously when helping friends move out, so yeah, moving heavy things : leave it to the professionals!!!

 

[TopNotch]

Backs do be like that! Take care.

 

[Fremen]

Healing vibes

 

[Froud]

Thank you @PetiteSheWolf @TopNotch @Fremen
@PetiteSheWolf It should not be too bad, but I prefer to see the doc just in case. But I concur with you with regards to professional removers. The heavier piece of furniture was a babyfoot table, in a small staircase in an old building in Ixelles. Wonderful memories.

 

[NancyTree]

Healing vibes for your back!

 

[JCU]

 

[Louve Rose]

Take care ! I know exactly what you mean by "a small staircase in an old building in Ixelles".

 

[Hwestneth]

Uff. I hope it's not too bad. Take care and healing vibes

 

[Montserrat]

Take care @Froud !

 

[Whirly]

Healing vibes!

[Haleth]

Hope your back is OK!

 

[Froud]

Thank you @NancyTree @JCU @Louve Rose @Hwestneth @Montserrat @Whirly @Anek @Haleth for your kind words.

While it is not too bad, I managed to slightly crushed a spinal disk. The good news is I avoided an hernia or a pinched nerve. I only need some rest and anti inflammatory.
That could be far worse.

On the other hand, I have a cyst in my left foot. So I took an appointment with an orthopaedist: best case scenario: remove the cyst, correct the hallux valgus and put a new hip. We will see
