During the 24 months of Folfirinox treatment, I walked between 3-5 miles. I worked all through my treatment requiring a daily roundtrip commute of 4 hours 20 minutes minimum. At work I walked the stairwell of 6-8 stories several times a day as well as walking up the escalators and stairs of the NYC subway and an 8 block walk part of my commute.

Just prior to my diagnosis, I was riding 50 mile segments for speed and endurance 2-4 mornings each week for a total of 100-200 miles/week.

Currently walk and ride my bike in nice weather. I have a stationary bike to ride in inclement weather. The exercise helped me in tolerating the aggressive amount of chemo and the duration of treatment of 2 years.

"The exercise helped me in tolerating the aggressive amount of chemo and the duration of treatment of 2 years." I have no doubt you're right about that, sir. My exercise routine had nothing but a positive effect on me during my chemo treatments. Thanks for your reply.
