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 [...]

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 [...]

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, [...]

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 [...]
