I’m now 7 months post RPA. Mended very quickly, no pain post op and continence now very good - no longer using pads.

I’ve just restarted running so I can be ready for the Royal Parks Half in October - running for prostate cancer of course.

My question relates to tiredness. After a training run, upto 5k I’m finding I’m really tired during the rest of the day and sometimes falling asleep around 5pm. Pre op I could manage a 10K. Am I expecting too much post op or is there something I should be doing as well?

I think it is more likely to be because you haven't been running for 7 months - nothing to do with the op. I run half-marathons periodically but find in the Spring it is really hard going because I haven't run all winter.
