Yeah, that seems....ambitious. I know from experience that I could do it, but with that short a time frame to prepare, it would hurt, and I'm not even trying to recover my strength after a big year of core surgeries.
I'm definitely not going to run a 5k before Christmas, but I will get back on those exercises! My #2018homestretch goal is writing at least one full chapter for my thesis.
PUT IT ON FROM THE BOTTOM GIRL!! Compression vests are hard af to put on. I have a flat chest but wide shoulders and its still hard. Slip it on FROM THE BOTTOM. Shimmy shimmy. !!!!!!
Kudos to you Hannah for wanting to do this 5K before Christmas. I know how much it takes to fully recover from surgery. I've had 7 surgeries in my lifetime (I'm 25). You are one inspiring person :)
I believe in you, Hannah! Good luck in the 5K. My #2018homestretch goal is to hang out more with friends. I too work from home, and I go days at a time without talking to anyone.
As a final year sports therapist, I am so interested in this series. I'm so glad you are enjoying the exercises and feeling the benefits. Well done for keeping them up everyday. I am excited to see how you get on with the rest of the journey, good luck x

Hi Hannah! I've recently had abdominal surgery to remove a benign ovarian cyst. Before my surgery I would go for a run 2-3 times a week, but now I obviously have to recover before I can run again. This video gave me a lot of inspiration on how to get my body ready for a run again! Thank you for the inspiration, and best of luck with your preparations!! Love, Laurine
Having done three months of twice a week pt at the start of this year trying to relearn how to godamn walk again, I give you props for doing your own pt. I found it difficult to make myself do it without a coach. You go girl!
Thank you for this, Hannah! Watching from a hospital bed post-surgery to remove a 12x8cm ovarian cyst and half my ovary. Feeling sore, weak and immobile. You’re such an inspiration and this is exactly what I needed to see. I’m going to sign up to run a 5km for The Christie. I was fortunate not to have cancer, but the weeks of testing have spurred me to give back while I build myself up (also going to donate my hair!). Thanks for sharing your journey ♥️♥️♥️
I know the feeling about working from home too much, I'm a full time carer for my Grandma so I'm here everyday and only rarely go actually out out apart from scheduled events I do. So getting some fresh air and just having a bit of a walk can do wonders for you! keep up the amazing work Hannah!
Well done young lady … you've been through a lot but you've taken the hardest decision of all, you've decided you will not quit. I am a cancer survivor, doctor gave me a 20% chance of surviving 5 years nearly 15 years ago. Like you I decided not to give up, frankly there is no future in giving up. Keep going Hannah, you've got this.
So happy for you! Try not to push it too much, I overdid it a bit a few weeks ago and am still recovering from it, it is much better to have slow and steady progress
#2018homestretchgoals 1. Get both my assignments done which are due in Jan 2. Get the majority of my reading for my dissertation done 3. Explore what voluntary work I want to do when I graduate uni 4. Have a good idea where I want to travel next year! These seem like very small goals but in doing these- I’ll feel like my life is more together and I’m more in control!
Loved the video! Just wanted to let you know that because of you, myself and my older sister have been doing 5km ParkRuns every other week! We're not yet at the point of actually running the whole thing yet, but we've kept a consistent time of roughly 40 minutes. This week will be my forth ParkRun and my #2018HomeStretch goal is to be able to run the whole thing! Thanks for inspiring us Hannah 💚💚
My #2018homestretch is to get out of the house at least three times a week. Since I became disabled two years ago there hasn't been a week I got out of my house more than two times in one week. So hopefully before the end of the year it will have happened...
Your reminder idea is amazing, and your 2018 home stretch goals is also brilliant- I've just started uni and I'm not very well, but your ideas are giving me hope and making me feel less alone. I'm having different challenges with exercise (I'm hypermobile and have to be really careful not to do more damage than good, PTSD makes it hard to go outside, depression makes it hard to have motivation etc. ) but I think I'm going to watch your video when I'm doing my exercise to have some solidarity
I must say I admire your willpower and mindset in general. You are strong and a great source of inspiration. I wish you all the best and hope you keep on getting better!
The physiotherapist in me is so excited for you!!! :) I'm actually about to do my first 5k on Thanksgiving (USA). I set a goal to become a runner this year, mostly because running is historically something I told myself I was bad at.
I’m just after scoliosis surgery and I hate the fact that I have totally lost all my fitness. This video has given some hope that I will get better. ☺️
Hi Hannah, so impressed with your strength and tenacity! You’re a big inspiration to me. I also have to do exercises for joint problems I have, and I noticed something about the supermans you were doing (that’s what my physio called them lol). I could never do this one correctly and was always getting adjusted by my physio, and it was suggested to me that not having the right form in the exercises could hurt me and also not build muscle strength where it needed to be built. Essentially you’ve got to keep your hips parallel to the ground, without letting your back sink in (like when doing the cat pose in yoga) and then keep your hands and legs as straight forward and parallel to the ground as possible. I don’t know if you have a physio, but maybe show a medical professional these exercises (unless you’ve already done this in which case sorry for this pointless advice and I don’t know anything!) just so they can check you’re all good. I wish you all the best Hannah and thank you for having such a positive space on RUclips, you’re really fab!
Thank you so much for posting this. I’ve been in a funk all day, also work from home, and haven’t done any exercise in quite a while. I was feeling very unaccomplished and down. I actually almost didn’t watch this video because I thought it would upset me by putting too much pressure on me. But I’ve just done a few exercises on my yoga mat and I feel the funk lifting a bit. Thank you!
I’m so happy you’re feeling better and able to do all these exercises! That’s amazing 💖 also going on long walks will really help build your leg strength as well so keep that up as well
Thank you for starting this series. This has sort of gone hand in hand with me and my running. I run at Park Run most weeks (which I adore) but recently I've been running more often and I love it so much. I need to keep going with it but I'm feeling so much better. I'm trying to work up to a 10k before Christmas so I wish you luck with your 5k!!!!!
Trying to complete my reading goal of 10 books for the year. I know it's not much, but I'm on my 10th book. I haven't been able to read this much since I was a child, so I'm super excited about it. Where do you get your list of exercises from?
I literally started doing crossfit yesterday after telling myself for A YEAR to get fit again with bodyweight training. It's just not possible for me to get to my limits just by myself. I need somebody to motivate me. I have a lot of respect for people who can motivate themselves on a regular basis.
Thank you so very much for sharing your journey, attitude and goals with us Hannah. There are a few exercises you are doing that I'm going to add to my routine after making sure with the therapist this week. One of my goals this year has been trying to be more accepting of changing limitations.
Wow you seem so much stronger than in your first video! Keep up the good work! This is defo motivating me to continue my daily exercises after being a complete couch potato for 2 months!!
This is so good to see! And your attitude is amazing. Thank you for uploading this when you did, I'm currently recovering from a hip arthroscopy, and my eventual goal is to be able to run by early next summer, and walking normally by this Christmas! Right now I'm still on both crutches, but the surgery was only a week ago, haha!
I'm wondering how you felt later the same day, or the morning of the next. Whenever I get around to some specific exercise (dodgy knees, could do with being a little more limber) it's always that morning the day after that tells me if I overdid it.
Good job, Hannah! Keep up the good work! I expect seeing you doing jump squats in two months and seeing you doing 20 km of biking within the end of next Summer!
Sit to stand.....cross your arms over your chest Hannah and consider a resistance band...it will help strengthen your knees and your IT bands very good for absorbing impact! Also loved the giggle after you said( favorit position) I do yoga and it's the best position ever!
Starting gradually . Baby steps the tortoise used to find itself on the finishing line. Set your longterm and tomorrow goals daily , see how they change and use a running diary to keep track of your fitness. First long term goal might be " in two weeks I will have run 100m in my long walk." The next one might be after that" I will have run 300m on the walk" this might comprise running 100m 3 times in the same walk or doing the running altogether . That might change to" I will run 300m twice in my walk." Take it easy in building up to any distance. I have a lovely wife who has the same issues as you with the top part of her body, Ott Bras are the proverbial nightmare for her to put on and she regularly requests assistance. She has to use them to go to exercize classes. Go Hannah cos this girl Can? 😉😎
This is obviously not as big a thing as yours but when I broke my elbow and had surgery I lost pretty much all strength in that arm and had to do physical therapy, and I remember how much of a huge accomplishment it felt like when I was able to trade out 5 lb weight for 10. I just felt like sharing that story because this video reminded me but also to say that you should feel awesome and so accomplished even if it seems like only a small step up. Anyway, you're killing it.
I injured my hip and had to do things like this to be able to run pain free (turns out I was actually standing incorrectly... geez!) so I feel you! Don't give up!
Thanks so much for these Hannah!! Had a laparotomy (c-section) & this series is so helpful... *I don't suppose you're able to link your exercises are you?* Thanks a million from Australia ❤ Emma 🌈☀
Now that my flare is over (yay chronic illness 🙄) I want to start exercising gently again. This year has been so back and forth with my health I was never able to exercise for more than a few days per month, and my health has declined a lot! I think I might borrow some of the ones you showed here to start. I'm also prepping for the FODMAP diet I'm starting next year to hopefully get my GI system working better.
Hannah you are such an amazing person! I have every faith that you can complete your goals but make sure you listen to your body (I know you already know lol)... looking forward to seeing what's to come for you!! Good luck :D
my #2018homestretch is to establish some kind of home workout routine that actually fits around full time education and full time work - hopefully setting myself up for a healthier and fitter year in 2019
Great goals; great work! Be kind to yourself if it turns out they aren't realistic :) Knowing when to re-evaluate ambitious goals for your own wellbeing is a strength too. You motivate me!
Hannah, you're so charming that I didn't even mind the City t-shirt!! #COYG Also, I really appreciate you documenting your fitness journey, it's quite inspiring!
You can do it Hannah! You’ve helped me so much with your Colitis/surgery/stoma videos, we have had a similar journey and I was watching them all in hospital after my surgery. They were a god send and so informative, they really really helped! And also inspired me that having a stoma is okay and I’m not alone. In fact, having a stoma is actually quite cool dare I say 😂 xxx
My #2018homestretch is to stop procrastinating as much and just do my three essays I have due within the next two weeks and treat myself to a lovely walk along the Kent countryside (cause I have been at London studying so I haven't been out much for walks, apart from work and it's one of my favourite things to do and I will back in Kent for Christmas) :)
Home stretch 2018 goals are starting to regularly exercise (failed this one for years!) and to prepare for a pretty intimidating application for a 7 year training programme. I'd rather hide in my bed then tackle either of those goals though!
Could you post more about your exercises? I'm trying to workout 3 times a week at the gym with little spurts of floor workouts here and there, because I'm a large human. Haha. And I feel like these are super doable for me, and I'd love to see more of this journey!
Did you used to have that painting on your wall in your Hannah Girasol days? I'd forgotten all about that's when I started following you but then seeing the picture reminded me! PS Well done on getting in the space - I felt very similar after my second c-section re insides of body (I know your op is much more epic but it's a similar thought haha!) Well done! x
This is such a good idea, I really should of done these exercises after my surgery to gently build myself up but no I went straight in and mucked out my horses stable and started riding and now it hurts behind my incision oops!! So NOW I want to do the correct exercises to strengthen my core and lay a good foundation. Can I ask where you got the exercises from? Thanks xx
Hannah Witton aka queen of vlogging a walk and making it into something interesting to watch
Congratulations on getting to the next set of exercices Hannah! And good luck for practice!
Also, I still can't get over how beautiful your rug is 😍
I loooved the section of the video with the vlog over the walking clips in the background
Same, that editing was so good.
I'm not gonna say a 5K before christmas is impossible, but I am going to say you should absolutely not feel bad if you don't make it.
Yes, goals are good. AND be gentle with yourself!
Sounds a bit quick to me.
Yeah, that seems....ambitious. I know from experience that I could do it, but with that short a time frame to prepare, it would hurt, and I'm not even trying to recover my strength after a big year of core surgeries.
I'm definitely not going to run a 5k before Christmas, but I will get back on those exercises!
My #2018homestretch goal is writing at least one full chapter for my thesis.
i believe in you!!
Hannah, if there is a person who can run 5K before Christmas, it's you! Your enthusiasm is really something admirable (sending a virtual hug)!
PUT IT ON FROM THE BOTTOM GIRL!! Compression vests are hard af to put on. I have a flat chest but wide shoulders and its still hard. Slip it on FROM THE BOTTOM. Shimmy shimmy. !!!!!!
my thoughts exactly :D
SHIMMY
Unless you have giantic hips.. Like me xD

I had similar surgery to Hannah, I remember how painful even lying flat was at first. Kudos to you pushing through. Good luck on the 5k!
I’m so happy you’re feeling better and able to do all these exercises! That’s amazing 💖 also going on long walks will really help build your leg strength as well so keep that up as well

i’m really bad at actually sticking to something that i start so i’m v proud of you for actually remembering to do those exercises
Way to go, Hannah! It's so hard to get back into good habits after being sick or having surgery. Great job!
I could watch this woman all day
Seeing how far you’ve come since your surgeries is inspiring 💜
THIS! YOU LOOK SOO HAPPY HANNAH!
Anyone else just waiting on seeing Hannah down the gym now. im hyped for it if she starts going to the gym reguarly now and maybe films it
I SERIOUSLY need to get back into shape! It's my New Years resolution for 2019 - lose weight and get in better condition!
Jeff Garlick was it your 2018 resolution as well?
Start now!
It's all about just going for it. Push

I'm so glad you're finally feeling stronger and healthier again! Best of luck in the 5k!!
So proud of you, Hannah! Don't forget to engage your core and pelvic floor muscles with the standing and transitional exercises :)
Go Hannah, go!
Ahh Hannah you inspire and encourage me to pursue my own fitness in recovery and the like. I absolutely do believe in you 💙
This is lovely
You've got this, Hannah!! Keep going! ❤️
The homestretch idea sounds great! I always forget about new years resolutions.
Good on you Hannah, you seem to be making great progress!! I believe in you 😄😄 x
Sorry! I've only just watched this! I'll have a think and pop you a tweet!
Great video! An inspiration as always.

Good luck for the run! Looks like you're doing great with the exercises. Also super cute at the end trying to be a contortionist.
Feel quite exhausted after that, and I'm sitting eating cheese on toast. Keep it up Hannah, you really are an inspiration to us all!
You know what, from now on, I will try the same exercises with you!
1) I'm glad to see your a City girl. Can't stand United (from a Chelsea fan).
2) Glad to see your strength improvements! Keep up the awesome work!
I injured my hip and had to do things like this to be able to run pain free (turns out I was actually standing incorrectly... geez!) so I feel you! Don't give up!

Thanks a million from Australia ❤ Emma 🌈☀
Yes you will! Gooooo Hannah!!!
I am definitely gonna use this line in the future, "there is mud on the floor, what's that doing?"
Now that my flare is over (yay chronic illness 🙄) I want to start exercising gently again.

Proud of you Honey
This is so inspiring
My #2018homestretch is to stop procrastinating as much and just do my three essays I have due within the next two weeks and treat myself to a lovely walk along the Kent countryside (cause I have been at London studying so I haven't been out much for walks, apart from work and it's one of my favourite things to do and I will back in Kent for Christmas) :)
I like the crunch crunch crunch when you are walking ^_^
This video was amazing! 😊👏
Home stretch 2018 goals are starting to regularly exercise (failed this one for years!) and to prepare for a pretty intimidating application for a 7 year training programme. I'd rather hide in my bed then tackle either of those goals though!
Could you post more about your exercises? I'm trying to workout 3 times a week at the gym with little spurts of floor workouts here and there, because I'm a large human. Haha. And I feel like these are super doable for me, and I'd love to see more of this journey!
Did you used to have that painting on your wall in your Hannah Girasol days? I'd forgotten all about that's when I started following you but then seeing the picture reminded me! PS Well done on getting in the space - I felt very similar after my second c-section re insides of body (I know your op is much more epic but it's a similar thought haha!) Well done! x
Apply for school! To stop being afraid of failing, and getting back in the game of life. *exhales* wish me luck.
This is such a good idea, I really should of done these exercises after my surgery to gently build myself up but no I went straight in and mucked out my horses stable and started riding and now it hurts behind my incision oops!! So NOW I want to do the correct exercises to strengthen my core and lay a good foundation.
Can I ask where you got the exercises from?
Thanks xx
It took me 10-11 months post stoma surgery + bladder Augmentation to do exercises just like these
