mcs I have been made redundant 3 times in my varied career and also graduated and moved to London with my ex in 1981, an awful time to be job seeking and when I ended up making Matchbox cars for a year, possibly the best job I ever had.
I don't know from what you are saying if you are literally and immediately out of work, but one thing I learned was to sit down and have a look at my prospects, current financial position etc, breathe and get perspective.
The sort of perspective Oscarr talks about is key, the rest is detail when you're awesome at what you do and used to running races to boot, never mind personable, presentable and up for a challenge.
It's still a shock and not fair so it's bound to rattle you.
Oscarr I'm so glad about the AJ. Way better than a treadie at last someone agrees!
I did 8.5 progression yesterday then went for Tui Na followed by homeopath who is trying to sort out my asthma (currently working on grief and mercury poisoning), then for a taster session with a personal trainer (kettle bells and TRX and clean and jerk, lunges holding 6K weights in each hand), at the end of which I was declared a 2 or 3 out of 10 for fitness.
He said my muscles have cannibalised themselves due to excessive running and this is also why I am so thin!
Speaking of which SB they had a new scales at my acupuncture place which assess and print your height and weight both of which it got right, but my body fat % was 32.2!!
So I am a bit of a marshmallow. Have been doing 2-3 Pilates/week and sets of squat jumps and pogoing lately, but is it too late?
Probably yes for London, I'm shattered as it is and have run out of time.
Now on a train to Salisbury to recce conference venues for October.
