WALKERS/EXERCISERS! Do you have any goals for walking this summer? I’ve even thought of going into Boulder and walking around downtown and neighborhood streets. Maybe I’ll try just once a week. I’ll report on how it goes.
What are you going to try?

@becsbuddy My goal is simple. To walk without a cane. Since January I have had very limited movement due to new issues, but still try to get out to walk. A slow turtle can beat me. Additional PT and procedures in near future. But going slow, I get to "really" see the neat things there are to see.

@becsbuddy, At recent pulmon. visit, she said the best thing I could do for lungs is " to walk 3 x's/week for a min. of 20 mins". I started laughing and told her of my self-challenge to do that very thing for 2020. She smiled at that and then as she was ending the apptmn't said: "whatever you are doing, keep doing it". Your lung scan and breathing reports are better this time than the time beflore! Wow! I'm still basking in that report.

However, most of current and next seasons will find me doing yard work as wind, heat and weather permit. I do plan to continue new location walks in more public areas. Having both Covid vaccs has given me more courage to be among more unmasked people here.

@becsbuddy
Well for starters I'm going to try and get out of my recliner. No promises beyond that.
My Mom's therapist said any movement is better than no movement so maybe I'll reach for some candy, Reese's on the left & snickers on my right, decisions decisions.
Happy trails all,
