For my 40th birthday, I got an exercise bike, a really good one. It takes your heart rate, etc. & you can adjust it as if you were going up a hill. Keeping active is good for anyone!

That’s fantastic to know about your bike.😀 How many days do you usually ride it?

Nearly every day. When I first got it I was on it every time a advert came on the TV. I was in training to do one of my challenges "3 of the Tallest" , that's "Big Ben" "The Shard" & "Scar-Fell Pike" in my 50th yr of T1. Mad!

Seems my days are always dfferent. We have a gym in our basement so I can go down and workout any day the weather is cruel. Also, plenty to do around the house to keep sugars balanced.

That's great to hear. A personal gym in the house makes a person more responsible for having to do the daily exercises. :-)

I go for a walk in the morning and evening amounting to a total of 6-7 km in a day. When it rains, I cover the same distance by walking in the house. I use an app to keep track of the distance covered.

Brisk Walking in the neighbourhood or nearby Road / Park has helped me to keep my blood sugar in check.

That's fantastic. Going for walks always helps my numbers from going too high.
