I feel pretty on top of the world right now.
- I just took my nightly walk outside, which is a wonderful thing in
itself. I much prefer exercising outside versus indoors in a basement.
- I made it further than I did two nights ago, which wasn't far. Prior
to Saturday, it had been since the previous Friday when I had taken a
walk, and I was starting to feel it. So I insisted it had been too long
on Saturday, and tried to take a walk with Jarrod. We didn't get very
far, because I started out at the pace I had been able to do. Big
mistake, I barely made it halfway and had a coughing fit. So we turned
around and headed back home instead of completing the route.
- However, tonight is a different story. After skipping a day, I was able to take my usual walk tonight, and on top of that...
- I ran 0.1 MILES! I ran from the corner where you turn in to our
subdivision, all the way to our house. So out of my half-mile walking
routine (I just mapped all this on Google Earth) I ran for 20% of it,
which sounds even better. I was pretty winded when I made it through the
front door, but boy do I feel good now! I'm kind of on cloud nine with
my accomplishment. This is the farthest I've run lately and it's good to
know I can push myself and do it! Next stop: running 0.2 miles (aka,
starting at an earlier point than the corner.)
