After several days of trying to complete my 2.0 km at some incline, finally, I was able to do it today by reducing the speed, so as to avoid the issues that I was facing.

35:23 min /2.00 km / 160 cal / inc 3-5 / speed 3.5, max HR 114

11,967 steps yesterday.

Slowed down a bit, lap time with Millie cat and even dozed off in the recliner mid day! Knees a touch achey so the rest came well.

The crystal lady messaged me early this morning and wants to make another purchase. So the morning will be spent with her. Other than that, just taking the garbage up the road is all I have planned.

11,730 steps yesterday.

The crystal lady was here for 3 hours so not too much walking during that time. She paid by check this time...finally realized it was the better way to pay. I just asked her to mark them "garage sale items/purchase" which she did. So Monday's are going to be on the hectic side again for a while...

I went out to deposit the check and do a tiny grocery run so got some extra steps there. Nothing on agenda today.

11,650 steps yesterday.

Spending a little more time sitting, Millie cat gets in my lap the minute I sit so I guess I have been neglecting her. Maybe I do need to slow down a bit. I'll see how today goes. I expect it will involve a trip to town and/or dealing with Dish repairperson. sigh....

10,318 steps yesterday. As the day began, I didn't think I'd be getting anywhere near that!

This morning it was hurry up with all the morning chores, only to end up having to wait for Dish tech to arrive. And hope he sets up the TV too...

After that put things back in their places and try to calm down back to normal activities.

Too crazy couple of days and I haven't even addressed the message from the crystal lady!

34:27 min /2.00 km / 169 cal / inc mostly 5 / speed 3.6 TM got stuck at this incline and speed, max HR 123

10,987 steps yesterday.

A little over 2 hours was spent with the Dish tech getting new TV set up and the new Hopper box installed and then learning how the controller works. Nice to have it all set up now.

Rest of the day was just the regular things. Today my friend is coming over with her old foam mattress topper and we're going to cut it down for a topper for the cat platform and for inside some of the boxes in their "house". So probably not much more walking than yesterday.

11,257 steps yesterday.

More than I expected what with the work in the cat's house and rebuilding their shelter on the side porch. We got the foam topper cut to size for the platform and then rearranged the area some. Then some planning for window shelves with the left over pad on them for the cats to sit on in the sun and be able to see out. A place for them to get up off the ground. My cats love to climb trees so they should like this.  Short platforms for them to climb up the wall to the shelf and on the other end to climb down. We have enough for the two large windows. Not sure how soon it will be done, depends on how my friend is feeling. She still has good days and bad days.  After the work we visited inside for a while and had a nice day. I needed that time!

Just inside chores today, laundry etc. Still need to figure out all the ins and outs of the new Hopper controller for the TV so that is a plan too for today.

Sunday morning
32:16 min /2.00 km / 169 cal / inc 4-8 / speed 3.6

[bigskygal]

11,046 steps yesterday.

Again, more than I expected. I did start to have leg cramps in the night, night before last and this morning. Either I am missing something in my diet, which is possible, (a little research to follow). Or I am walking too much and have stressed the muscles, which is also possible.

Will back off some today and see. All I need to do is a quick grocery run, gather garbage, and put away the laundry I did yesterday.

Snow shoveling this morning first thing to make a path to feed and water the cats. It's getting to be that time of year...

Upped my workout a bit. Today's stats
38:43 min /2.30 km / 200 cal / inc 4-8 / speed 3.6 /maxHR 135
That would be equivalent to 5800 steps.

[bigskygal]

10,309 steps yesterday.

Took it a bit slower, the grocery run added some steps. No leg cramps last night so think I'll go with the same plan for today.

Garbage up to the road, some snow clearing is about all that is on the agenda besides the visit from the crystal lady.
