Walked Again!
OK, I've stuck with it, and walked again tonight. Made it once around the block with a little less difficulty. Of course, I then had to get into the car and clock the route to determine just how long (short) of a walk it is. It turns out that it is 3/10's of a mile. So now, here's the plan ....
A. Continue walking once around the block for about another week.
B. Add a second time around for 2 - 3 weeks.
C. Add a third time around (which would be just under a mile) for several weeks.
D. Then increase my speed until I'm doing a 15 minute mile.
Yes, if you pop in hear and read, it sounds pathetic that I can barely make it 3/10's of a mile, but that's what NO exercise because you're sitting at a desk or computer will do to you. My faithful readers can keep me in check.

Keep it up - you've got a lot to live for. Plan a vacation once you are doing well at it - like St. Augustine or somewhere you can walk around as a gift to yourself.
