Yesterday I completely forgot to take the stairs, so as compensation I did the 2 km run with sarge. He was not upto it but obliged at my insistence. Good man.

Rocky - just out of curiosity, when you do the run with Sarge do you run inside or outside?  If you run outside, what kind of scenery do you enjoy?

I have been getting just over 2,000 steps regularly which isn't too much compared to others, but it is an increase for me.  So I am glad I can make small improvements.  I greatly admire those of you with so many steps.  :)

8,759 steps yesterday.  ~ cat ~ in lap.
Today may be lower as  ~ cat ~ is really in the lap a lot!

Grammabear, we do what we can and don't compare to someone else. We all progress at different rates, for different reasons. Do what you can and be pleased with it!

Grammabear, we run outside, from the gym to a park, where we part ways. The running is mostly on a pavement which is lined with flowering plants, but it is dark by the time we get to it.

Yesterday I managed 14 floors only + full gym routine.

Like I had said I am not keeping track of steps while taking the injections for my knee but now my hip is giving me problems.  I really don't know why, it's just short of a year since I broke my hip and all of the sudden it has become a problem.  It hurts a lot when I try to move when I first get up and if it is in a certain position.  It seems to get better as I move and walking is not a real problem but if I step on it in a certain way it sends a jolt.  If it doesn't get better I may have to see the surgeon again.

I had my fourth knee injection yesterday and that is going well.  The best news is that my hip is really better.   ~clp~
My orthopedic doctor was sure that it was from walking different and suggested exercises (I'm terrible at exercises) but I was very happy that I was much better yesterday and now I realize it is my muscles that are sore and not the hip joint.  My knee does seem to be improving and I was able to walk more yesterday but I promised myself that I would not push it too much yet.  Still I did walk over 5K steps yesterday and felt good doing it.
