It’s been a while since we have tracked our daily, weekly and monthly miles. Each of us have a reason to keep going. Whether it is chasing kids, keeping our hearts healthy or just staying fit and limber to keep going. Mine, is because I have a messed up back. Recently, spasms have put me on the ground, wondering if I could get up and walk again. Not fun, when the dog is standing over me, breathing in my face. Lol. So, this year, I am trying to walk more. Walking the dog, thankfully, he is a slack leash heeler. We walked 1.5 blocks and turned around, on 1-2. .46mi. The next day, I took a break because I was sore, only walked .07 mi. Sat.1-4, I pulled weeds, mowed, etc. and walked 2.2 mi. Mon. 1-6, walked the dog 1 square block, totaling the day at 1.4 mi. Tue. 1-7, not much, then, I didn’t have my phone on me. Then, Wed., paying bills, running errands and such,I managed another mile. Today, 1-9, going to the store, errands, and canning, 1.1 mi. It doesn’t sound like a lot, but my muscles are sore and I feel like I have been rung through a ringer. Proves to me, I really need to get back in shape. I let myself go and am determined to try to get back my strength.
