I Walked Twice Today / myLot

Canada

March 7, 2016 3:22pm CST

I am very happy today to have been able to walk twice. All the walking was done indoor and at the end I had to use my walking sticks as it was getting more difficult for me. So, the first session was this morning for 30 minutes and just did another 17 minutes a little while ago. It was my first walk since last Monday unfortunately.

I know you haven't been too well, so I hope you will be able to walk regularly again soon.

Thanks, I certainly hope so. I get very frustrated when I can't walk.

Walking a little each day is good. What you have done is what you felt able to do. Maybe you could set up a certain time each day to walk. Start with just a few minutes each time and build up to a goal you want to reach.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work this way for me, because of health problems. Each day that comes is a surprise.

@marlina Especially if you spend a fair amount of time in front of a computer. Luckily I am a terrible fidget!

you gotta do what you can do. maybe heat or ice before you walk and after might help too

Well done for walking twice. I admire your tenacity as it must be hard to keep going when it is so difficult.

Glad you felt like walking. I wanted to go out, but it rained most of the day, and the yard looks really slippery.

I have heard that using walking sticks actually helps make your stride easier. Hoping that I can soon venture out and walk around when the weather is nice.

That is a good effort on your part. I think as you get more and more confident, you can take a long outdoor walk and enjoy the wind, the sounds of humans and nature.
