Do you want to see your kids grow up? by RuddysMarathonEffort

In 2004, at 42 I had a stroke. I suffered temporary paralysis, 10 days in hospital and all the fright that came with it. I then lost three stone, got fit and took up running. Many 10k's and half marathons plus 2 marathons later my running career has come to halt because of a self inflicted, chronic Achilles tendon injury.

Having quickly put 2.5 stone back one, I am frightened that another stroke maybe just around the corner and only have to ask my self one question..............Do I want to see my kids grow up?

Until the Achilles decides to behave itself, this is my attempt at losing weight and getting fit again...without running

Please help me I need it!
