Another day behind. Better mood on Thursday as I was happy to get out and exercise. I ran most of the way. It felt okay. Sore calves still but doable. I'm trying to soak my legs every morning in a mildly hot bath of epsom and dead sea salts. Plus stretching while I'm in the tub. I think it is helping some.

Diabetes Sucks!!!
I don't like it! I don't want it! But I've got it! And once you have it, you always have it. But I can do something about it and that is what this blog is about. My journey to better health and wellness. Yes, for the rest of my life!!!

I absolutely did not want to exercise today. My mood was really low and I just wanted to curl up and sleep. I did nap in the afternoon for an hour and a half but as 5:30 approached, I just felt this inclination to get out and do what I could. As usual, I felt much better when I was done. I kept the time under an hour and I was glad that I went out. If I don't get out and do my 5 miles, after 3 days, I'm toast!

Yeah Baby!!! My fastest time. Eleven minute miles with a couple stop-to-walk periods for a quick drink of agua. I know I can get down to a ten minute mile eventually if I run the whole way. Only a matter of time now. Each day is a gift. Today was my present to me!!!

Not as quick as yesterday. Weather 75 degrees. Legs a little stiff today. I'll have to stretch some more. I wonder how long it will take me to hit 1,000 miles. I was hoping to hit in in December and here it is already the end of February. Oh well, not complaining.
