I was a jogger prior to THR in January. I started back walking outdoors in late March . I finally started to feel somewhat back to normal at 6 months post op. I walked 6 miles today with friends. This is my longest distance post op. I am signed up for a 10k at the end of January. It feels good to walk that far and not have pain afterwards.

Welcome to the wonderful world of new body parts. I'm at 18 years and counting either my hips - even revisions didn't make me change my mind. Now I have a knee yelling at me. Will see my ortho in the Spring to consider whether there are still some conservative measures to try. My walk today is a stroll down the streets of our favorite Mexican border town taking in the sights and sounds of holiday preparations in two cultures and languages. What a treat to reconnect with all our friends and acquaintances here. Now on our way to have lunch and margaritas in our favorite restaurant. Most walks are not quite as much fun.
