Hiya Guys...
Maybe a daft question, but wanted to ask if anyone has, or knows of anyone who has managed light jogging / running after a THR. I’m guessing this is probably a non starter, but thought I’d ask anyway....
I know we are all different etc but just thought I’d ask....
Many thanks in advance for your posts and advice...

The bounce in the Samba is also tough and the turn out and curtsey in Classical Sequence ( old time) was also a bit hard on my butt muscles.
