      Hi,

      I am 2 years out from THR and was advised by surgeon not to go back running, were you giving the same advice? I would really love to get back at it as I am only 46 but he said the chances of wearing it out were high if I got back into running.Have you had any scans to suggest it’s wearing it down since?

      James
