I have been walking about .7 or .8 mile daily at a mall, park, etc but today I went to the Y. YEAH!!!!! I did it. My main purpose was to get on the treadmill since my husband is going to be doing most of his walking outside now that the weather is better. The treadmill is terrible I couldn't go the same MPH I was doing at the mall or the distance. I literally forced myself to do .4 before I couldn't do any more, rested then got back on and quit at another .1. So altogether it was .5 mile Then I had to sit about 5 minutes before I could go out to the car. I had brought my water with me so I was prepared. I will keep on trying though. I want to eventually put an incline on it so I can work my thighs and butt. Very disapointing day
