Hello from Melbourne Australia

Hello and welcome, Damian! Please feel free to join the Australia Chapter (Chapters link above). :barefoot:
 
One more caution that your grass jaunt has reminded me of, Damian: be very careful in soft surfaces. There are two reasons for that. First, grass can hide a veritable plethora of unseen dangers from glass to uneven ground and who knows what else, so make sure you know very well any grass you run on. The second is that the inevitably somewhat-uneven nature of earth versus concrete or asphalt surfaces makes the connecting tissues and fine motor-control muscles in your feet have to work overtime. That's fine so long as you work up to it slowly, allowing all of those tissues to develop a little at a time. Again, hoping you will be able to avoid some of the pitfalls I found by stumbling into them headfirst. Enjoy!
