Finished out the day with a whopping 5-1/2 miles! For those of you who KNOW me through FS, tell these newbies how I feel about exercise. Before I started walking, 27 days ago, my entire day consisted of being planted in my recliner, only getting up to go to the bathroom or to go to the kitchen to get something to eat (often) I started this 27-day winning streak with one "atomic" goal: Put On My Walking Shoes. On my worst knee pain days, I only got in 6/10 to 8/10 of a mile. Then I started to strive to get up to two miles a day. For the past five days, I've broken a new record every day.

Here's how I got to this point: After I put on my walking shoes (which is all I'm "required" to do), I would walk for 200 steps in my house, walking from one end to the other in a loop, staying out of the pollen! 200 steps is 1/10th of a mile. I would set an alarm every half hour and when it went off, I got up and walked 1/10th of a mile. After awhile, I thought, "I think I can do TWO/tenths of a mile, so I started doing that every half hour. THEN, I thought, "1/4 of a mile is only 100 more steps than 2/10 - and I started shooting for that. So, for a couple days I was walking 1/4 of a mile (500 steps) every 30 minutes. Day before yesterday, I came up with the novel idea of doing a housework thing during each loop - put away the silverware, fold the couch blanket, iron my new blouse, cut up onions for lunch hot dogs - one little thing that I'd do along the loop whenever I went through that room. Yesterday I did the same, "tiny job each loop" method, but I took the giant step of decreasing the amount of time between loops - only a 20-minute break now between walkings - AND, I started walking 1/2 mile for most of the loops.

That's all a very long story, but it's how I got from where I was (COUCH POTATO) to where I am now (Elite Athlete). Well, alright, maybe I'm not THAT far along, but for me, it is a miraculous change.

Ok, sitting here writing about it isn't getting any walking done now, is it? I woke up Coughing my head off. Ate a slice of toast which calmed it down some. My hope is to go BACK to bed soon!
