I've surprised myself!

4 Replies

Yesterday was my day for brisk walking and so far I've only managed 6mins - three times round the green. Well, I did 4 times round the green - 8mins! And the last lap I was practically jogging! Today I was more than a little stiff, so I decided to do my usual 3500 round trip to the coffee shop, to loosen up. But I looked on the map and decided to take a new route which was the same distance. But I'm rubbish at map reading - one of the roads was a darn dead end! Well, when I got to the coffee shop I was exhausted! By the time I got home I'd walked 4500 steps - my best ever! Mind you, I don't know if I'll be able to get out of bed in the morning - fingers crossed! ;) ;) ;)

I will keep my fingers crossed for you. Hopefully it will be a great new count with no after effects. Take care. Rfc x.

Oh Rfc,thank you:) I'm really keeping everything crossed! Yesterday was a conscious decision - today was just a mess up!

Sounds like two great days Kay, sometimes that little accidental push is what we need. Let us know how you're feeling tomorrow.

I will runswithdogs - I'm off to my son and his family tomorrow for a few days and I'm going on public transport, so if I'm feeling a bit delicate at least I won't have to drive!:)
