You are now officially inducted as charter members too tkrik and afternap

tikrik, are you in Phoenix? or Sacramento Valley? Thats plenty hot.

Thanks for the nice welcome afternap

I did my weights tonight for 30 minutes. Thats the only exercise that I dont really like that much. I like how it makes my muscles stronger, and helps the bones, but otherwise, I much prefer swimming. I watched Spiderman3 tonight while doing the weights

Just finished my second hike for the day and I'm pretty pooped. More tomorrow!

Cindy, two naps in one day earns you the medal of honor today

Erin, I hope that it does mean that you are gradually regaining feeling. When I have burning in my legs, I wrap it snugly in a towel and it seems to reduce the brains ability to process pain--the pain greatly lessens. Cant lose anything trying it?

I've been putting a heating pad on the burning areas. (not too hot)

I noticed that anything cold on it (shower water) made the burning worse, but heat made it feel better. Weird, that heat would make it feel better.

hi,

i started walking about 2 yrs ago.
my neighbor sold me her treadmill for $50 when she moved and now it's sitting in my living room (i have a 1 BR apt ). i call it my Dreadmill .

i walk almost every day and do 8 min's. now i'm up to 10.
i long ago said to make a reasonable goal and that's it for me. otherwise i'm still walking and i drive. so i get around. it's just harder and harder.

thanks for the thread.

My recovery has been moving forward. For the last 7 weeks, I have been using my treadmill for anywhere from 25 to 45 minutes per day. Two weeks ago, I added cycling to the mix and am now doing 2 rides a week, about 15-20 miles at a pop. I'm officially training for the MS Bike Ride this fall.

Some days are harder than others. And in the 100+ degree heat here....it can be killer.

Next week I am graduating to using the elliptical.

Gotta keep moving!!
