Hello from Pam, in Stoke on Trent, England
Hello, I am spending more time on here and finding it really useful and a 'warm' site to use promoting reallness but positiveness.
I will stay on here, I had a quick look at the shift site, it is a bit white for my eyes so bedding down today for a day reading the useful posts.
Thanks Pam
I am resting after two journeys and one last lifetime trip last month to Newquay, one this month to West Wales.

Actually Stella, Shift.MS has a whole section of their site dedicated to exercise. It's pretty fun to explore but navigating can be a bit tricky and things can be tough to explore....

Glad to help, Penguin!

But you knew that already
UK sites full of info, so don't want to bash them, but seriously lacking in even letting people know that an active life can still be possible. Which is slightly bizarre, as the two people I know personally who have the most ability to access and understand expert knowledge (my brother, medical student, and a friend, junior doctor aiming to specialise in neurology) are totally delighted at my determination to run, run, run - why the difference between expert knowledge and laypersons' information? I know, we Brits are kind of weird
I'll be ordering your t-shirt for future runs that I'm participating in.....the message of staying active is unheard of here.Last edited by Stella; 09-25-2011, 01:07 PM.
