I am a 59 year young 4 month post op THR gal who wants desperately to return to running.... I did have a long waiting time before surgery hobbling about in pain a few years so lost all the muscle I had gained from the running etc.... Am now training to walk a half marathon.... I never thought I would say (walking a half) but I have been returning to couch potato mode since PT was finished and Doc preferred me to not run.... So ...a story of pouting lol .. Anyway ... Am hoping to get back to some form of running as it is my love.... I have been reading a few posts and am noticing that most people on here have had the ceramic implant.... I didnt do my homework previous to surgery.... Are there any others on here that have had Metal-on-plastic (polyethylene) with Titanium done and have had success in returning to running? I don't even know if I am posting this in the proper place so please bare with me till I figure out the site? Thanks Tons for any help! xo Nancy
