Hi, Colleen
Mindful of pavement conditions, in the past winter activities were confined to running and walking. However, this will be my first winter as a lung cancer patient and since my diagnosis I have rediscovered the joy of just walking. Too many of us use the gym as a primary location when all four seasons offer something different outdoors.

@ta52, welcome to world of walkers. I like walking with poles. They’re great for posture and work the arms as well as legs. Still have to be careful of the pavement conditions.

Did you have treatments beyond surgery for lung cancer? How has your activity and exercise capacity changed?
