WALKING Did much of this through the City on May 25 and 27. Need a new pedometer.
Problem: The day after! Think this is the age/energy factor, especially with city walking on pavement. And so give myself permission not to go to gym. Hope to change this, but…
TREADMILL May 28 20 minutes at 3.0.

Claude – May 21 to May 24
In spite of ending up doing more driving than we intended to, I managed walking, even though I haven’t been too faithful to fast walking or fast biking, which is a pity.
May 21st, as I said before, in the morning I had a one-hour stretching session. In the evening, we walked and my pedometer said [...]

Claude – Monday May 19th to Wednesday May 21st
Pedometer said 15,500 steps, no fast walking though, on Monday
Only 5,500 steps on Tuesday, but had a one-hour Feldenkrais session.
Wednesday morning, had a one-hour stretching session that did me a world of good.
Am leaving for Normandy, so the rest of today will basically be dedicated to driving and dinner

Claude, wondering… Anybody there?
I have the feeling I am all alone here. No one even visits, much less comments or posts.
Well, I am basically doing this for myself so never mind.

I find it difficult to do a lot fast walking or biking when it’s really hot.
This was the case with May 14th. Was glad to have managed 8,500 steps + 20 mn fast biking. I turned on my fan and thought summer might prove more difficult than winter.
May 15th, pedometer said 6,500 steps, better [...]

Claude – May 7 to May 13
It’s been a difficult week, in terms of exercise.
On Wednesday May 7th, my pedometer said 17,000 steps, which was more than OK. Tiring though and I was in company, so no fast walking.
Thursday, all I did was drive home. Not a long drive, just some two hours but after that, I didn’t feel like [...]
