Unfortunately for a few personal reasons have had to pull the chord on the Edinburgh Marathon at the end of May.

I wanted to complete a marathon in/around my 40th Birthday.

Pivot required!

My solution: see if I can break my 5km PB (20mins 21secs) in the next 7 weeks.

New goal: 🥅 if you can’t run far, I’m going to try to run fast!

Enjoyable first ever track session on Saturday morning 🌅

Speed training time 🕰️

🚀 Introducing the Pro Health Physio ACL Pathway

ACL injuries are complex.
Rehabilitation shouldn’t be guesswork.

At Pro Health Physio, we’ve launched a dedicated ACL Rehabilitation Pathway designed to capture, measure and guide your recovery with objective performance data every step of the way.

Whether you’re dealing with:
▪️ ACL reconstruction
▪️ Meniscus injuries
▪️ MCL injuries
▪️ Or complex knee rehab cases

Our pathway is built to support athletes and active individuals through the key milestones of recovery:

✔️ Pre-operative preparation
✔️ Early post-operative rehabilitation
✔️ Return to running
✔️ Return to sport
✔️ Return to performance

Using advanced testing including force plate technology and dynamometry, we objectively assess strength, force production, and asymmetries so that return-to-play decisions are based on data — not guesswork.

The pathway is led by our Rehabilitation S&C specialist, Jack Dent, who brings exceptional experience from working in one of Europe’s leading sports surgery hospitals — the Santy Sports Surgery Clinic in Dublin — where he supported 8–9 ACL rehabilitation cases every day for over five years.

Jack brings a depth of knowledge and detail that ensures nothing is left to chance in your rehab journey.

If you’ve suffered an ACL injury — whether you’re pre-op, early stage rehab, or approaching return to sport — this pathway is designed to give you clarity, structure, and confidence in your recovery.

📩 Want to learn more?

Drop us a message, call the clinic, or email us and we’ll send you the full ACL pathway pack with all the details.

🐕 Dog Days = Slow Down, Get Outside, Reset

The “dog days” aren’t about laziness — they’re about listening to your body. Longer days. Warmer air. Life nudging you to move a bit slower, breathe a bit deeper, and spend more time outdoors.

Walks over workouts. Fresh air over screens. Quality time over rushing.

If your energy’s dipped, that’s not weakness — it’s feedback. Adjust, don’t quit. Stay consistent, hydrate properly, get sunlight, and keep your body ticking over instead of smashing it into the ground.

Health isn’t built by going hard all the time.
It’s built by knowing when to ease off and still show up.

Enjoy the dog days. They don’t last forever. 🐾
