So, yeah.

I am recovering slowly from a Lisfranc injury. I am now allowed to walk (in rigid-soled shoes), but it's slow, tiring, and tends to make my foot ache; I have very very limited spoons for walking in a day.

Since I could previously walk for hours on end, this is a major blow. I can't stroll or absently wander anywhere any more. If I ever can again, it will be a fair while from now.

Anyone adapting flaneur-y to deal with mobility impairments? Flaneurs using public transport? Tip, advice, suggestions or constraints?

I'm not, actually - in fact the landing (feet first onto the mat off the overhang is a Bad Idea) was Episode 2 of the household New Year resolution for Other Housemate to get back in coaching practice and me to relearn it. Insanely, several of the people who scraped me off the floor have asked him for coaching.

My plans are for core strength, hand and wrist strength (I already have a ligament injury in one wrist, it is not happy with me), back alignment, de-traumatising housemate, swimming to follow once I get the all-clear.

Done so much ligament damage that I have another 4 weeks before I'm allowed any cast-less weight bearing and at least 6 months before climbing, if I'm lucky. And OH will never let me back on the wall without a belay again, poor man.
