    You probably don't remember but I saw you outside the tube stop after the marathon and gave you a quick congrats for completing it as I didn't want to bother you. This is an amazing achievement mate, great stuff!

    Dunno why. Mikel’s kindness towards Theo by genuinely asking him what’s up with his hip made me smile.

    Im 23 years old and had acl and meniscus surgery after playing competitive sports for over 5 years. I’m currently 2 weeks into recovery and the progress is slow and painful, nothing like I had expected it to be. Being so dependent on the people around you makes you so grateful for those who care about you and for the independence you normally have. It’s crazy how much I can relate to you and how motivating it is for me to watch you go through this and make it through like you did. Expected recovery is 8 to 12 months, it’s scary to think about it now and to think about all the difficult times to come during recovery. But watching this makes me want to do the “walk with me” (50km for charity) I did just over a year ago so badly again and I hope to walk it in 2024, that’s now my goal and I hope, that I, just like yourself, will be able to make it happen. Thanks Theo for the motivation and congratulations on the amazing achievement. I hope you play again in the sidemen charity match which I watched you play live last time. Keep up the hard work and best wishes for your future football days!

      I’ve just turned 15 and currently 3 months after having an acl reconstruction and meniscus repair. I remember tearing it at 14 and crying for a long time because it seemed like I would never play sport again. For the first 6 weeks it was very painful but slowing I’m starting to make a slow return back to football. If I was to give 1 bit of advice even though I’m a lot younger than you would be to not give up, there will be times when it feels like progress is minimal but you will get there eventually 💪

      @squidca2455 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      my ex had ACL surgery a couple years back and within a year was back to playing college ball within a year, you'll get there in no time! trust the process and make sure to take care of your mental health throughout, jumping over psychological barriers was her biggest hurdle. best of luck with your recovery!!

    love the video theo keep up the good work. I had a similar thing where after hernia surgery the doctor said I would be back playing football in 8 weeks whereas it actually took 6 months, it's annoying when doctors put that in your head, but at least gotta be grateful that I had the surgery.

    Really well done! I've had the exact same surgery done in december, first cleared to run in the end of march. Now I'm training to do my first ever ultra marathon. I feel the pain you've gone through during the rehab process and people don't understand how hard it can be until they've experienced it! Really great motivation for me to keep training!

    Go on Theo !!!! I know how it feels when your health stops you from doing things you love. But, one must always remember that bad times don’t last long. It takes a lot of determination to beat this but it is possible. I’ve had a similar story myself. Congratulations Theo and all the best for the future. 🎉
