The railroad track sounds wonderful. I walk out of the house to a gravel driveway (not very steady yet) and then onto a chat road that needs grading badly, with a lot of ruts. It is not wide and everyone drives too fast down the road. They do not slow down if you are walking and usually they are driving in the center of the road. It can be scary. The other way is to walk out to the big barn and make a loop coming out the east driveway and you are on the county road. Then it is a short walk to the house. Going that way is gravel, dirt, grass, and weeds. Not easy walking on. Then I have to use a cane so I do not lose my balance and fall. Nothing flat around here. I have been walking in the yard now that the grass is mowed. Oh, the joys of living the good old country life which is great but to for walking or running. Walking slow pace is my speed right now.
I would like to do Silver Sneakers but our supplement does a different program. If accepted it has a fee. The YMCA offers it and that is not far. Something to look into. ECHO over and 12 lead EKG tomorrow. Sure hope there are things that I can finally have done. KLH
