Out today!

10 Replies

After a totally lazy day yesterday - the most I walked was to the kitchen to put the kettle on - I went out today. I didn't quite make the 3000 steps I aim for (my right foot has been really painful for a few days), but I managed 2500. I'm happy with that!

And so you should be kay50. Every achievement should be celebrated as its a step in the right direction

Well done for getting out. I hope your foot calms down a bit. I’m hoping for my first exercise walk since coming down with flu over a week ago. I have now had three days without a temp. I will take it steady.

Hooray! There are lots of nasty things going around just now, so it's great that you're feeling better! Flu can have lingering after effects - you know your mantra - slow and steady!!

Very well done! And next time you’ll be able to do a little more, foot permitting - it’s good that you are listening to your body too. Bet you feel great!

Thanks Kathp - I must say getting out even for a little while lifts my mood noticeably!

I know what you mean! Have been in all day - waiting for a roofer to come - and I’ve so missed walking to the shops etc 😕

Oh no! It's so frustrating when your routine gets thrown out off course! Commiserations.

Sounds like a good walking day Kay. Hopefully the foot behaves soon.

Thanks runswithdogs - it's a lot better already! I'll probably be out again tomorrow!
