7,839 steps yesterday.

Woke at 4:30AM with extreme back pain. Almost thought I should call 911. Slowly did a few stretches then got up and slowly walked a bit and worst of pain subsided. Back to bed and when got up at 6:30AM back better but still sorest it has been in a while. I think I'm going to take it really easy today.

? steps yesterday.  Like I said I did take the day off and didn't even carry the Fitbit to count steps.  I am feeling a lot better today so back to the normal routine.
Gee Barbara, I hope you are really going to take it easy and get better.

Thanks Wally. Yeah, my recliner and I will definitely be best friends today! I don't know if I just slept wrong or really did something to my back yesterday but I sure don't want to feel that way again!!

I don't know if I just slept wrong or really did something to my back yesterday

Could probably be the first one, and if it is, it'll go away soon.

I've really taken it easy today and my back is still sore, but better. Hopefully I can sleep better tonight and I think I will go very slow again tomorrow.

Did a bit of running today to break out of the monotony of inclines all the time.

21:03 min/2.00 km/129 cal speed 4.5 /8.0 Run - 45 % max HR 154                                                                        

About 2 years ago I could do 60-70% of running at higher speeds and manage the 2.0 km in 15:27

5,190 steps yesterday.

True to plan, I took it as easy as possible. My back gradually got better over the day, took an Advil before bed and slept pretty well. Today back seems back to normal minimal aching so it paid off. Still will try to take it easy again today.

Only 2674 steps yesterday.  I was doing well until around 11:30 AM then I did something to my leg and it felt like I twisted my knee but I don't think I did however it hurt to put weight on it so I had to sit down and not do much.  Today it seems fine so I guess it is OK and I am doing my normal routine.

6,305 steps yesterday.

I was doing pretty good taking it slow until the fire. Then I walked up the road to talk to next door neighbor to see if they knew what happened. Then walked back when fire dept had things in hand. Unexpected steps. Back seems to be OK so far today for what rest I have given it.

4653 steps yesterday.  My leg was fine so I don't know what it was but glad to be back to what I call normal.

6,891 steps yesterday.

A little more walking than I had planned, but neighbor was back to continue yard clean up and kept asking what to cut and what to leave. So I was inside, outside, inside, outside more than normal.

Right knee is aching so will have to baby it today.

4429 steps yesterday.  I received the cane yesterday and I am able to use it instead of the walker some of the time and it works pretty well.  I am switching from one to the other giving me time to get used to it.
